Hello,
If we want to factor the expression, we have to solve
3x² + 10x + 8 = 0
a = 3 ; b = 10 ; c = 8
∆ = b² - 4ac = 10² - 4 × 3 × 8 = 4 > 0
x1 = (-b - √∆)/2a = (-10 - 2)/6 = -12/6 = -2
x2 = (-b + √∆)/2a = (-10 + 2)/6 = -8/6 = -4/3
Factor :
a (x - x1)(x - x2)
= 3(x + 2)(x + 4/3)
= (x + 2)(3x + 4)
Answer: To solve these types of questions what I always do is get a protractor if you have one and put it up against to where the dot is in the middle of the empty hole and then get a ruler or a pencil and make the line keep going to see what angle. In this case your answer is 65% I think.
If the value of the baseball card increases by 3% per year then we can say that each year the value of the card may be multiplied by 103% = 1.03, thus:
Value after n years = original price*(1.03)^n
Value after 15 years = 75*(1.03)^15
= $116.85
Answer:
54+7x
Step-by-step explanation:
-2+7(x+8)
-2+7x+56
54+7x
This football field has 36 squares. As each square's area is 1 m^2. So, total area is 36 m^2.
the area = 8×1 = 8 m^2( this portion is not shaded )
i.e, the area of shaded part will be (36-8) = 28 m^2.
