Answer:
9y(2x - 1)(x - 2y)(x + 2y)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
18x³y - 9x²y - 72xy³ + 36y³ ← factor out 9y from each term
= 9y(2x³ - x² - 8xy² + 4y²)
Factor the first/second and third/fourth term in the parenthesis
= 9y( x²(2x - 1) - 4y²(2x - 1)) ← factor out (2x - 1) from each term
= 9y(2x - 1)(x² - 4y²)
x² - 4y² is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b), thus
x² - 4y²
= x² - (2y)² = (x - 2y)(x + 2y), hence
18x³y - 9x²y + 72xy³ + 36y³
= 9y(2x - 1)(x - 2y)(x + 2y) ← in factored form
The answer is b. Notice that the problem is looking for the reaction to product ratio, which is tricky because it's easy to follow the order of the column and calculate the inverse of it. Check the first ratio, 0.3/2=0.15, we can immediately choose b out of the other 4 choices.
Here are a few things you'll need to know for this question:
- Domain: <u>The list of x-values that are possible on a line.</u>
- Range: <u>The list of y-values that are possible on a line.</u>
- Interval Notation: <u>Shows the domain/range using the endpoints</u>. Brackets mean that the endpoint is included, parentheses mean the endpoint is excluded. Ex: (2,10]. 2 is excluded, 10 is included.
- Closed Circles: <u>The endpoint is included.</u>
- Open Circles: <u>The endpoint is excluded.</u>
So firstly, let's look at the domain. We see that there is a closed circle at x = -2 and an open circle at x = 5. Using what we know, <u>the interval notation of the domain is [-2,5).</u>
Next, let's look at the range. We see that there is a closed circle at y = -5 and an open circle at y = 2. Using what we know, <u>the interval notation of the range is [-5,2).</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By drawing the point (-3,-1) in the coordinate plane we find the graph shown below. Since there are 10 points between points A and B, we need to start at point A and then we have to move 11 units either to the right, to the left, up, or down
.
1. MOVING TO THE RIGHT:
From point A, move 11 units horizontally to the right to come to point B:
(-3+11, -1) = (8, -1)
2. MOVING TO THE LEFT:
From point A, move 11 units horizontally to the left to come to point B:
(-3-11, -1) = (-14, -1)
3. MOVING UPWARD:
From point A, move 11 units vertically upward to come to point B:
(-3, -1+11) = (-3, 10)
4. MOVING DOWNWARD:
From point A, move 11 units vertically downward to come to point B:
(-3, -1-11) = (-3, -12)
So this are the basic movements you can get to find point B. You also can move diagonally upwards or downwards in whose case you would find other four points. The graph below shows a red point which is A, and the other points are in black color and represent B.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The average scores s (on a 100 point scale) for the students can be modeled by
s = 75 - 6 In(t + 1), 0 < t < 12
where t is the time in months.
a) Since the students were given an exam and then retested monthly with equivalent exams, then,
For the original exam, t = 0
Therefore,
s = 75 - 6 In(0 + 1) = 75 - 6 In1
s = 75 - 6 × 0 = 75
b) the average score after 4 months, t = 4
Therefore,
s = 75 - 6 In(4 + 1) = 75 - 6 In5
s = 75 - 9.66 = 65.34
c) s = 60
Therefore,
60 = 75 - 6 In(t + 1)
6 In(t + 1) = 75 - 60 = 15
In(t + 1) = 15/6 = 2.5
t + 1 = e^2.5 = 12.18
t = 12.18 - 1 = 11.18
t = 11 approximately
