Factor completely x2 + 20x − 36.

Mathematics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Prime

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 20x − 36

You must find a pair of numbers that multiply to give -36 and add to give +20.

The likely candidates are 2 and 18, and they must have opposite signs to give a negative product.

+2 × (-18) = -36; +2 + (-18) =   -16

-2 ×   18  = -36;  -2 +     8   = +16

Neither combination gives +20 as the sum.

The expression can't be factored with rational numbers.

The expression is prime.

You roll 2 number cubes. What is the probability of rolling double twos?<br> EZ points!
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 ways we can roll doubles out of a possible 36 rolls (6 x 6), for a probability of 6/36, or 1/6, on any roll of two fair dice. So you have a 16.7% probability of rolling doubles with 2 fair six-sided dice.

Use the formula to evaluate the series 1/4 + 1/9 + 1/27 + 1/81.
Dmitriy789 [7]
Is the first term supposed to be 1/4, or did you actually mean 1/3?

I'll assume the latter. Write

S=\dfrac13+\dfrac19+\dfrac1{27}+\dfrac1{81}
S=\dfrac13+\dfrac1{3^2}+\dfrac1{3^3}+\dfrac1{3^4}
\dfrac13S=\dfrac1{3^2}+\dfrac1{3^3}+\dfrac1{3^4}+\dfrac1{3^5}
\implies S-\dfrac13S=\dfrac13-\dfrac1{3^5}
\dfrac23S=\dfrac13\left(1-\dfrac1{3^4}\right)
S=\dfrac12\left(1-\dfrac1{81}\right)
S=\dfrac{40}{81}
