Factor the expression completely. 6×3- 4×2 – 16x A. 0 B. 2x(3×2 – 2x – 8) C. 2x(3x + 4)(x – 2) D. 4x(2x + 1)(x – 4) E. 2x(2×2 +

Ghella [55]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

6x³ - 4x² - 16x

To factorize the expression first factor out the GCF out

The GCF in the expression is 2x

That's

2x( 3x² - 2x - 8)

Next Factorize the terms in the bracket

To factorize write - 2x as a difference

that's

2x( 3x² + 4x - 6x - 8)

<u>Factor out x from the expression</u>

2x [ x( 3x + 4) - 6x - 8 ]

<u>Next factor out - 2 from the expression</u>

2x [ x ( 3x + 4) - 2( 3x + 4) ]

<u>Factor out 3x + 4 from the expression</u>

We have the final answer as

Rosetta wants to estimate the percentage of people who rent their home. She surveys 250 individuals and finds that 48 rent their

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

$0.192 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.151$

$0.192 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.233$

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

$X= 48$ number of people who rent their home

$n= 250$ represent the sample size

$\hat p =\frac{48}{250}= 0.192$ represent the proportion of people who rent their home

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.645$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.192 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.151$

$0.192 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.233$

A rug is shaped like a parallelogram with a base of 41⁄2 ft. and a height of 2 1⁄4 ft. What is the area of the rug? Draw and lab

Bess [88]

Answer:

46.125 square feet or $46\dfrac{1}{8}$ sq. feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rug is shaped like a parallelogram with a base of $\frac{41}{2} = 20.5$ feet. and a height of $2\dfrac{1}{4} = 2.25$ feet.

Now, the area of a parallelogram is given by the product of one side as the base and the perpendicular distance of that side from the opposite parallel side as height.

Now, the area of the given parallelogram is (20.5 × 2.25) = 46.125 square feet. (Answer)
