To factor ax^2+bx+c, you look for two factors of a and two factors of c, one factor of a multiple one factor of c, the other factor of a multiple the other factor of c, the sum of the two products makes b
in this case, the two factors of a is 1 and 2, the two factors of c, -36, are -12 and 3. Write them in the following format:
1     -12

2      3
do a "cross-times", that is, 1 times 3, 2 times -12
(1 multiple 3) +(2 multiple -12)=-21
if you don't get a -21, try other factors of -36, switch the factors up/down till you find the right fit.
so (x-12)(2x+3) is the anwer

Lila wrote an equation of the cost for printing brochures, where x represents the number of brochures and y represents the total
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

y = 0.47x + 25

y1 = 41.45 and not 55.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

x = number of brochures

y = total. Cost

Total cost of 35 brochures = $41.45

Total cost of 65 brochures = $55.55

The ordered pairs :

(x1, y1) ; (x2, y2)

x1 = 35 ; y1 = 41.45 ; x2 = 65 ; y2 = 55.55

(35, 41.45), (65, 55.55)

The slope :

Slope (m) = change in y / change in x

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (55.55 - 41.45) / (65 - 35)

m = 14.1 / 30

m = 0.47

The y intercept :

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 41.45 = 0.47(x - 35)

y - 41.45 = 0.47x - 16.45

y = 0.47x - 16.45 + 41.45

y = 0.47x + 25

Lila incorrectly chose 41. 45 as y1

Plz help me - 5/8 as a decimal?
marin [14]

Answer:

-0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fraction negative in value with numerator -5 and denominator 8.

We have to convert this into decimals.  For that we add as many zeroes after decimal point after 5 and divide with 8.  The quotient what we get is value of the fraction.

To find in decimals, let us divide 5 by adding zeroes to the right

8)5.00000{0.625

  4.8

-------

     20

     16

--------

      40

      40

  ------

      0

-------------------------------

Hence in decimal form the fraction -5/8 = -0.625

Q is a degree 5 polynomial that passes through the origin, has zeros i and 7 - i, and q(-1)= -520. find the equation for q​
Lunna [17]

Using the factor theorem, the equation for q is:

q(x) = 4(x^5 - 14x^4 + 51x^3 - 14x^2 + 50x)

The <em>Factor Theorem</em> states that a polynomial function with roots x_1, x_2, ..., x_n is given by:

f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2)...(x - x_n)

In which a is the leading coefficient.

In this problem:

  • Passes through the origin, so x = 0 is a zero, that is x_1 = 0.
  • x = i is a zero, and thus, it's conjugate also is, that is, x = -i, hence x_2 = i, x_3 = -i
  • x = 7 - i is a zero, and thus, it's conjugate also is, that is, x = 7 + i, hence x_4 = 7 - i, x_3 = 7 + i

Then, the equation is:

q(x) = a(x - 0)(x - i)(x + i)(x - 7 + i)(x - 7 - i)

q(x) = ax(x^2 - i^2)((x-7)^2 - i^2)

Considering that i^2 = -1

q(x) = ax(x^2 + 1)(x^2 - 14x + 50)

q(x) = ax(x^4 - 14x^3 + 51x^2 - 14x + 50)

q(x) = a(x^5 - 14x^4 + 51x^3 - 14x^2 + 50x)

q(-1) = -520 means that when x = -1, q = -520, and this is used to find a.

q(x) = a(x^5 - 14x^4 + 51x^3 - 14x^2 + 50x)

-520 = a(-1 - 14 - 51 - 14 - 50)

130a = 520

a = \frac{520}{130}

a = 4

Hence, the equation is:

q(x) = 4(x^5 - 14x^4 + 51x^3 - 14x^2 + 50x)
