Answer:

$\huge\boxed{3a^2(a^3-6a+2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 3a^5-18a^3+6a^2\\\\HCF = 3a^2\\\\Take \ 3a^2 \ common\\\\= 3a^2(a^3-6a+2)\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Hope this helped!

Equilateral triangle ABC has a perimeter of 96 millimeters. A perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment

prisoha [69]

Answer:

<h2>A 16mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has all of its sides equal.

Perimeter of an equilaterial triangle = 3s where;

s is one side of the triangle.

Given the perimeter of ABC = 96mm

Substituting into the formula above to get s;

96 = 3s

s = 96/3

s = 32mm

Hence the length of one side of the triangle is 32mm

If a perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment B C at point M, then MC will be half of BC and ΔAMC will be a right angled triangle.

Since all the sides of the triangle are equal, hence BC = 32mm. Since MC is the half of BC, then MC = 1/2 of 32mm

MC = 1/2 * 32mm

MC = 16mm

<em>Hence the length of Line segment MC is 16mm</em>

Which of the points listed below is not on the line with equation 7y+2=3x-5

kicyunya [14]

Answer: Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the folllowing Linear Equation:

$7y+2=3x-5$

You need to substitute the coordinates of each point given in the options into the equation and then evaluate.

1) Substituting $(2, -\frac{1}{7})$ into the equation, you get:

$7(-\frac{1}{7})+2=3(2)-5\\\\-1+2=6-5\\\\1=1\ (TRUE)$

2) Substituting the point $(3, -\frac{3}{7})$ . you get:

$7(-\frac{3}{7})+2=3(3)-5\\\\-3+2=9-5\\\\-1=4\ (FALSE)$

3) Apply the same procedure using the point $(1, -\frac{4}{7})$ :

$7(-\frac{4}{7})+2=3(1)-5\\\\-4+2=3-5\\\\-2=-2\ (TRUE)$

4) Apply the same procedure using the point $(-1, -\frac{10}{7})$

$7(-\frac{10}{7})+2=3(-1)-5\\\\-10+2=-3-5\\\\-8=-8\ (TRUE)$

5) Substituting $(0,-1)$ into the equation:

$7(-1)+2=3(0)-5\\\\-7+2=-0-5\\\\-5=-5\ (TRUE)$

Therefore, the point $(3, -\frac{3}{7})$ is not on the given line.

Allison earns $14 an hour plus $20 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 35 hours for the w

Ronch [10]

<u>Part a)</u> Create an equation that shows the amount of money earned, E, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime

Let

E-------> the amount of money earned

x------> number of hours worked

we know that

For $x\leq35$

$E=14x$

therefore

<u>the answer part a) is</u>

$E=14x$

<u>Part b) </u>Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, T, for working y hours of overtime

Let

T-------> the amount of money earned

y------> number of hours of overtime

we know that

$T=14*35+20y$

$T=\$490+20y$

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is</u>

$T=\$490+20y$

<u>Part c)</u> Allison earned $610 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did she work?

we know that

$35\ hours=\$490$

$\$610-\$490=\$120$

Divide $\$120$ by $\$20$ ----> to obtain the hours of overtime

$\frac{120}{20}=6\ hours\ of\ overtime$

So

Allison works

$35+6=41\ hours$

$Regular=35\ hours\\ Overtime=6\ hours$

therefore

<u>the answer part c) is</u>

$Regular=35\ hours\\ Overtime=6\ hours$
