Answer: (x + 9)(x - 6)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

x² + 3x - 54 Find 2 numbers whose product is -54 and sum is +3

∧

-1 + 54

-2 + 27

-3 + 18

-6 + 9 = +3 This works!

Place those digits in the parentheses and it is now factored.

Answer:

<h2> $\mathrm{(x + 9)(x - 6)}$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 3x - 54$

Write 3x as a difference

${x}^{2} + 9x - 6x - 54$

Factor out x from the expression

$x(x + 9) - 6x - 54$

Factor out -6 from the expression

$x(x + 9) - 6(x + 9)$

Factor out x+9 from the expression

$(x + 9)(x - 6)$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

What is the first step in solving this system by elimination?

kherson [118]

You want to try and get rid of one of the variables ( x or y) so you would multiply the second equation by 2 which would make the x variable -2x which then when added to the first equation would eliminate the x variable.

Answer: c. Multiply the second equation by 2.

A survey found that 89% of a random sample of 1024 American adults approved of cloning endangered animals. Find the margin of er

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The margin of error for the survey is 0.016

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1024

Sample proportion:

$\hat{p} = 89\% = 0.89$

We have to find the margin of error associated with a 90% Confidence interval.

Formula for margin of error:

$z_{stat}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64$

Putting the values, we get:

$M.E = 1.64\times (\sqrt{\dfrac{0.89(1-0.89)}{1024}})\\\\M.E=0.016$

Thus, the margin of error for the survey is 0.016
