Find the area of the figure below.<br> 6 in.<br> 5 in.<br> 4 in.

Fully Factor 3x^2 – 16x + 20

ryzh [129]

Answer:

C. (3x2 - 10) (x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 16x +20

Step 1: Sum = - 16x

Product = 60x^2

Step 2: Find 2 numbers that their sum is -16 and their product is 60. If you do that correctly, then you will get two numbers: 10 and -6

Step 3: Replace -16x with the two numbers found in step 2, then you will have; 3x^2 - 6x - 10x + 20

Step 4: Factorise the equation in step 3, like so;

(3x^2 - 6x)(- 10x + 20)

3x(x - 2) -10(x - 2)

(3x - 10)(x - 2)

To check if the answer is correct, expand the bracket: (3x - 10)(x - 2)

If the bracket is opened properly, you will get 3x^2 - 16x + 20

Ivan has 6 times as many blue beads as red beads. he has 49 red and blue beads in all. how many blue beads does Ivan have

salantis [7]

Let

x--------> the number of blue beads

y--------> the number of red beads

we know that

$x+y=49$

$x=49-y$ -------> equation $1$

$x=6y$ ------> equation $2$

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$49-y=6y\\ 6y+y=49\\ 7y=49\\\\ y=\frac{49}{7} \\ \\ y=7$

find the value of x

$x=6*7\\ x=42$

therefore

the answer is

Ivan has $42$ $blue beads$

A report by the US Geological Survey indicates that glaciers in Glacier National Park, Montana, are shrinking. Recent estimates

Answer

a) C

b) B

c) C, E

d) 15.5

e) 0.7

f) 67.7

Step-by-step explanation

a) A linear equation can be written as $y=mx+c$ where $m$ is the slope and $c$ is the intercept on the $y$ -axis. The slope describes how $y$ changes when $x$ changes. A negative value means the it is a decreasing change. In our case, $y$ is $A$ and $x$ is $t$ . Thus, the slope of the equation is $m=-0.062$ . This means that the area of glacier is decreasing by $0.062 \text{km}{}^2 = 62000 \text{m}{}^2$ every year since 2000.

b) The $A$ -intercept (= 16.2 $\text{km}{}^2$ ) represents the area covered when $t=0$ . But $t=0$ starting from year 2000. This intercept then represents the area covered by glacier in the year 2000. Therefore, the area covered by glacier in 2000 was 16.2 $\text{km}{}^2$ .

c) $A=f(t)$ means the area covered after year 2000. Setting it to 12 means the area covered after $t$ years is 12 $\text{km}{}^2$ ). $t$ is therefore the number of years since 2000 that the total area covered will be 12 $\text{km}{}^2$ ).

d) $f(12)=16.2−0.062\times12 =16.2-0.744 = =15.456 15.5 \text{km}{}^2$ to 1 decimal place.

e) The term involving $t$ represents the disappearing area. In 12 years, the disappeared area is $0.062\times12=0.744 =0.7 \text{km}{}^2$ to 1 decimal place.
