Answer:
528
Step-by-step explanation:
So naturally at first sight for this question we would think -->
Oh 3 consecutive integers = 66 --> 66/3 = 22 (n-1), (n+1) so --> 21, 22, and 23.
But no. At second look it is the sum of 3 consecutive integers is greater than 66. So we find the next possible pair since it says smallest possible product.
We get the set (22, 23, 24). => Multiply the least and greatest integers together respectively 22 and 24 which amounts to => 528
And thus, we have out answer of 528
Hope this helps!
3.74 is already rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation: 15x2/4x-5 =30/-20 =1 1/2 First:
Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.
Then your initial equation becomes: <u>Applying the fractions formula for division,</u><u><em> </em></u> Simplifying 30/-20,
Answer:
- <em>B. The grouping method of factoring trinomials involves rewriting the bx term into the factors that fit the particular trinomial, and factoring these four terms using grouping</em>
Explanation:
The description may be better explained by applying it to an example.
Example:
- the general form of a trinomial is a x² - bx - 30
- comparing with x² - x - 30 the <em>bx term </em>is - x
- then you must <em>rewrite the bx term, - x,</em> into two terms whose coefficients are factors of 30:
Two numbers which add up - 1 and multipled are - 30. Those numbers are - 6 and + 5, because -6 + 5 = - 1 and (-6) × (+5) = -30.
Hence, the two terms are -6x and 5x, and the expression rewritten is:
x² - 6x + 5x - 30
- <em>factor these four terms using grouping</em>:
(x² - 6x) + (5x - 30)
x(x - 6) + 5(x - 6)
(x - 6) (x + 5)
Hence, the factored trinomial is (x - 6) (x + 5)
the correct answer is 5/12
