You can factor a parabola by finding its roots: if
has roots 
, then you have the following factorization:
In order to find the roots, you can use the usual formula
In the first example, this formula leads to
So, you can factor
The same goes for the second parabola.
As for the third exercise, simply plug the values asking
you get
Add 3 to both sides:
Divide both sides by 1.5:
B is the answer to your question
<span>Simplifying
u(x) = -2 + -2x + 7
Multiply u * x
ux = -2 + -2x + 7
Reorder the terms:
ux = -2 + 7 + -2x
Combine like terms: -2 + 7 = 5
ux = 5 + -2x
Solving
ux = 5 + -2x
Solving for variable 'u'.
Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right.
Divide each side by 'x'.
u = 5x-1 + -2
Simplifying
u = 5x-1 + -2
Reorder the terms:
u = -2 + 5x-1</span>
To figure out how many kids are in the school, you must set up an
equation with x representing the number of students. 30% of the students
are in the play, so that would be represented by 0.3x. We also know
that 140 students are not in the play, that could be represented by
x-140. These two equations will equal each other since they both
represent the same information, which is the number of children in the
play. You set those two equations equal to one another (0.3x = x-140).
You then can add 140 to the left side of the equation and subtract 0.3x
from the right side. We do this in order to get both values of x on the
same side of the equation. We then can simplify the right side of the
equation by subtracting 0.3x from 1x. We get 0.7x. Our equation now
looks like 140 = 0.7x. We must now divide each side of the equation by
0.7 in order to get the x all by itself and find its value. 140 divided
by 0.7 is 200. The number of students in the school is 200.
Answer:
an-1-9
25n-1-9
25n-10=0
25n=0+10
25n=10
divide both sides by 25
25n/25 =10/25
n=2/5
