Answer:

(x-2), (x+2), (3x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors of 3: ±1, ±3

Factors of 20: ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20

Possible factors of the polynomial: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20, .... (there's a lot more but you probably do not need to list them all)

Pick a number to divide the polynomial by (I picked 2)

(3x³-5x²-12x+20)÷(x-2) = 3x²+x-10

So (x-2) is a factor of f(x) = 3x³-5x²-12x+20

Factor 3x²+x-10 = (3x-5)(x-2) these are the other factors of f(x) = 3x³-5x²-12x+20

9966 [12]
Let x=the first number
Then x+7=second number
And 4(x+7)+2=third number (2 more than 4 times the second)
Now we are told that:
x+(x+7)+(4(x+7)+2)=85 get rid of parentheses
x+x+7+4x+28+2=85 simplify
6x+37=85 subtract 37 from each side
6x+37-37=85-37
6x=48
x=8---first number
x+7=8+7=15 second number
4(x+7)+2=4*15+2=62 third number

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first find the slope. Lets get two points and apply the slope formula.

(1,2) and (2,4)

Rise: 2

Run: 4

Slope: 2

Then, lets use the standard way of showing a linear equation.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

i use the two sided t-test.

Step-by-step explanation:

it would be nearly impossible to ascertain with certain the proposition above but we would rather guess using the parameters that were available at the time.

generally in statistics, we use a two sided t-test when an area of a distribution is two-sided and tests whether a particular given sample in question  is greater than or less than a exact range of values.

the two sided t-test  is mostly used in null-hypothesis testing and testing for statistical significance.

How to solve -5 + 13y = -7
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

y = -2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 + 13y = -7

Add 5 to each side

-5+5 + 13y = -7+5

13y = -2

Divide by 13

13y/13 = -2/13

y = -2/13
