Answer:

3(x + 3)(3x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9x² + 21x - 18 ← factor out 3 from each term

= 3(3x² + 7x - 6) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 3 × - 6 = - 18 and sum = + 7

The factors are + 9 and - 2

Use these factors to split the x- term

3x² + 9x - 2x - 6 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )

3x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

(x + 3)(3x - 2)

Then

9x² + 21x - 18 = 3(x + 3)(3x - 2) ← in factored form

Listed below are prices in dollars for one night at different hotels in a certain region. Find the range, variance, and standar

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Range = 115$

Standard Deviation = 43.76$

Variance = 1915.142$

Option A) The measures of variation are not very useful because when searching for a room, low prices, location, and good accommodations are more important than the amount of variation in the area.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the data for prices in dollars for one night at different hotels in a certain region.

234, 160, 119, 131, 218, 207, 146, 141

Range:

Sorted data: 119, 131, 141, 146, 160, 207, 218, 234

$\text{Range} = 234-119 = 115\$$

Standard Deviation:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

$Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}$

$Mean =\displaystyle\frac{1356}{8} = 169.5$

Sum of squares of differences = 4160.25 + 90.25 + 2550.25 + 1482.25 + 2352.25 + 1406.25 + 552.25 + 812.25 = 13406

$\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{13406}{7}} = 43.76\$$

Variance =

$\sigma^2 = 1915.142\$$

Measure of variance for someone searching for room:

Option A) The measures of variation are not very useful because when searching for a room, low prices, location, and good accommodations are more important than the amount of variation in the area.

Find x to the nearest hundredth place.

Arada [10]

Answer:

C. 24.27 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 65° = opposite ÷ hypotenuse

sin 65° = 22/x

multiply both sides of the equation by x

(sin 65°)x = 22

divide both sides of the equation by sin 65°

x = 22 ÷ sin 65°

punch in 65 sin into your calculator

x = 22 ÷ 0.90631

x = 24.27 cm

Can someone help me solve this?!

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

10x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we work on the paranthesis. We will times 5 and 2x to get 10x

and then we times 5 and 3/4 to get 3 $\frac{3}{4}$

So now we have 10x+3 $\frac{3}{4}$ -1.75

Next, we subtract 3 $\frac{3}{4}$ -1.75 which is 2

Lastly we look at the equation as a whole!

10x+2
