Which expression is equivalent to 24x2 - 22x + 5?​

Mathematics

enot [183]3 years ago

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

24x² - 22x + 5

Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 24 × 5 = 120 and sum = - 22

The factors are - 12 and - 10

Use these factors to split the x- term

24x² - 12x - 10x + 5 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 12x(2x - 1) + 5(2x - 1)  ← factor out (2x - 1) from each term

= (12x - 5)(2x - 1) ← in factored form → C

Find the slope and write an equation with these to points (0,-2) (3,1)<br><br> plz explain
tatiyna

Hello There!

Slope: 1

Equation: y = x - 2

Let's start by finding the slope. To find the slope of a given equation, subtract the y values over the x values.

y1 - y2 / x1 - x2 ⇒ 3 - 0 / 1 - - 2 ⇒ 3 / 3 ⇒ 1

This means we have a slope value of 1.

Now, to find an equation. We will find the equation in slope intercept form, or y = mx + b. (In this case, m = the slope and b = the y-intercept, and x and y equal your x and y values fro a given point.)

To get the equation, we need to find the value of b, or the y intercept. To do this, we need to plug in the values we know into the equation.

we know m is the slope, and we know the slope is one so we can place that into the equation. We also know the points (0,-2) (3,1). We can place one of them into the equation for the values x and y.

1 = 1(3) + b

Now, simplify.

1 = 1(3) + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

So, our y intercept is -2, we can plug that into the equation, making our final equation y = x - 2. We don't need to put y = 1x for the slope since multiplying something by 1 is doesn't change the number.

I hope this helps! I know my explanation might have been kind of confusing so if you need more help let me know in the comments !

Ghella [55]

Answer:

20 mangos

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide $600 by 12. Your answer should be $50. This means that every mango costs $50.

2. You now need to solve the expression: 1000 ÷ 50 which equals 20. This means that with $1000 Jane can buy 20 mangos.

At Davis you can buy 12 pounds of M&amp;M's for $12.24 or 8 pounds for $8.24 at Smith's. Which is the better buy
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

12 pounds

Explanation:

If you were to divide 12.24 from 12 you would get 1.02, which would be the cost of each pound.

Meanwhile, if you were to divide 8.24 from 8 you would get 1.03, which would be the cost of each pound.

So although its only a 1 cent difference and you are technically spending more by buying the 12 pounds, if it were to buy 8 pounds from the cost of each pound for the 12 pounds, you'd only be spending $8.16 vs $8.24.

Because you would multiply 1.02, which is the cost of each pound for 12, by 8 and you would get 8.16.
