Answer:
3x(x - 4)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x³ - 6x² - 24x ← factor out common factor of 3x from each term
= 3x(x² - 2x - 8) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
The factors are - 4 and + 2, since
- 4 × 2 = - 8 and - 4 + 2 = - 2, thus
x² - 2x - 8 = (x - 4)(x + 2) and
3x³ - 6x² - 24x = 3x(x - 4)(x + 2)
Answer:
0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for how much height is gained per cup added.
Height per cup added can be calculated by finding the slope of the line that runs through the two given points on the graph, (3, 5.5) and (8, 8).
Formula for slope =
Let,
For this problem, you know that the first walker will arrive 2 hours before the second, and increases his speed by 2 times the second walker. You also know there is a distance of 24 km. So up until some time x, the two walkers have to be going the same speed. If the first walker increases speed by two times the speed per hour, and arrives two hours earlier, then his initial speed will be 20 km/h, because after 2 hours, he will have an increase of 4 km/hr, and the second will have an increase of 2 km/h, thereby making the first arrive 2 hours earlier, if that makes sense.
18). 16:80 is the ratio but in simplest form is; 5:0
19). 36:54 is the ratio but in simplest form is; 2:3
20). 12:24 is the ratio but in simplest form is; 1:2
hope that helps:D
