Consider the trinomial x2 + 10x + 16.

1 answer:

6 0

The coefficient of 10x and the last term 16 is what we'll focus on. Specifically just the numbers only (ignore the variable x for now).

Think of two numbers that both multiply to 16, and also add to 10. Those two numbers are 8 and 2 (in any order). You basically find this through trial and error.

8 + 2 = 10

8 * 2 = 16

So it factors to (x+8)(x+2). Since order of multiplication does not matter, this is the same as (x+2)(x+8)

In 2005, out of every 50 employees at a company were women. If there are total company employees, estimate the number of women

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

9248

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of women out of 41285 total company employees then we have the following proportion

11.2 : 50 = x : 41285

x = (41285 * 11.2)/50

x = 9247.84

the number of women is 9247.84 or if we round it since we can not have 0.84 of a woman employee, is it 9248.
