Answer:

It would be Choice A, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

So with this, it wants for you to factor out x^2-8x+7.

Since we already have one of the factors, (x-1), this removes most of the work with it. The task is to find the second factor.

With this, the FOIL method is needed. First, Outer, Inner, and Last of each factor are multiplied. Note that the ending numbers of the factor should multiply to give the final number of the standard form. Also, the middle value of the standard form should be the addition of each of the numbers * the x value.

Choice A:

x^2 – 8x + 7

(x-1)(x-7)

Choice A is correct as it follows the rules given above.

Choice B:

x^2 – 8x + 7

(x-1)(x+7)

Choice B is incorrect, because it would be x^2+6x-7 if FOIL is done.

Choice C:

x^2 – 8x + 7

(x-1)(x+8)

Choice C is incorrect, because it would be x^2+7x-8 if FOIL is done.

schepotkina [342]

Given the stated equation we know that that quadratic formula has 2 as its degree. This meats it has 2 roots. A linear equation has a degree of 1. A linear equation has 1 root. To know if they intersect, the must have one root in common. To know this, solve the two equation simultaneously. If they result to an answer then they intersect.

Given: The coordinates of isosceles trapezoid JKLM are J(-b, c), K(b, c), L(a, 0), and M(-a, 0). Prove: The diagonals of an isos

In-s [12.5K]

We have to find the lengths of the diagonals KM and JL:
d ( KM ) = √ (( - a - b )² + ( 0 - c )²) = √ (( a + b )² + c² )
d ( JL ) = √ ( ( a - ( - b ) )² + ( 0 - c )²) = √ ( ( a + b )² + c² )
So the lengths of the diagonals KM and JL are congruent.
The lengths of the diagonals of the isosceles trapezoid are congruent.

A box of cookies contains 4 chocolate and 6 butter cookies. Miguel randomly selects a cookie and eats it. Then he randomly selec

laila [671]

Answer:

The probability of the flavor of the second cookie is always going to be dependent on the first one eaten.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of the type of cookies left depends on the first cookie taken out.

This is better explained with an example:

Probability Miguel eats a chocolate cookie is 4/10. The probability he eats a chocolate or butter cookie after that is 3/9 and 6/9 respectively. This is because there are now only 3 chocolate cookies left and still 6 butter cookies left.
In another case, Miguel gets a butter cookie on the first try with the probability of 6/10. The cookies left are now 4 chocolate and 5 butter cookies. The probability of the next cookie being chocolate or butter is now 4/9 and 5/9 respectively.

The two scenarios give us different probabilities for the second cookie. This means that the probability of the second cookie depends on the first cookie eaten.
