Answer:
(3n + 4) (n-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Are you asking to factor this 3n^2 - 2n -8 ?
If so the best way to do this problem is with the X method.
top: 3*(-8)
left: factor of 3*-8 right: factor of 3*-8
bottom: -2
try the factors 4 and -6 because 4*-6 = 3 *-8 = -24
Because notice that 4 + -6 = -2
so:
3n^2 -2n - 8 can be rewritten as 3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8
We should first use Distributive property to factor: 3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8
3n^2 -6n + 4n - 8 = 3n (n - 2) + 4(n - 2)
Now we factor by grouping here : (3n + 4) (n-2)
I factored out the group (n-2)
Therefore: (3n + 4) (n-2) = 3n^2 -2n - 8
Answer:
-0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change from a to b:
[f(b) - f(a)]/(b - a)
Look in the graph for the function values at x = -3 and x = 0.
f(-3) = 2
f(0) = 0.5
average rate of change =
= [f(-3) - f(0)]/(-3 - 0)
= [2 - 0.5]/(-3)
= 1.5/(-3)
= -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
let jon age be x
dad age is 2 of x i.e 2x
grandpa age is 7 + 3(x)
The sum of jon dad and grandpa age is 145 i.e
x + 2x + (7+3x) = 145
3x +. 7 + 3x = 145
6x = 145- 7
6x = 138
divide both sides by 6
x = 23
jon age is 23
while
grandpa age is
7 + 3(x)
7 + 3(23)
7 + 69
76.
Answer:
6:5:4
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + 5 + 4 = 15
3000/15 = 200
200 x 6 = 1200 = eldest
200 x 5 = 1000 = 2nd eldest
1200 + 1000 = 2200
3000 - 2200 = 800
200 x 4 = 800 = youngest
Answer:
0.14 $
Step-by-step explanation:
Price of 20 ounce bottle of mustard for $2.80.
Price of 1 ounce bottle of mustard for 2.80÷20 $
= 0.14 $
