To solve the equation x²-6x+8=0 find the two numbers that multiply to get 8 and add to get -6. These two numbers are -2 and -4. 
Therefore the answer is (x-2)(x-4).

Does this look correct?
Neko [114]
That is not correct.  I will help you.  Begin by subtracting the 9x from both sides, like this:  9x - 9x + 2y = 6 - 9x.  That simplifies to 2y = -9x + 6.  Now divide both sides by 2 to get y all alone, like this:  \frac{2y}{2}=- \frac{9}{2}x+ \frac{6}{2}.  That reduces down to y=- \frac{9}{2}x+3.  That is slope-intercept form.  y = mx + b.

A basketball team is down by 2 points with only a few seconds remaining in the game. There is a 60% chance that the team will be
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning.

A 30% probability of making the 3 point shot and winning.

What should the coach do, go for the 2 point shot or the 3 point shot?

In which case the team has a higher probability of winning?

The team has:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning. So, going for the 2 point shot, the team has a 0.6*0.6 = 0.36 = 36% probability of winning.

Going for the 3 point shot, the team has a 30% probability of winning.

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.
