Answer:

(n - 2)(5n + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5n² - 4n - 12

Consider the factors of the product of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term

product = 5 × - 12 = - 60 and sum = - 4

The factors are - 10 and + 6

Use these factors to split the n- term

5n² - 10n + 6n - 12 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 5n(n - 2) + 6(n - 2) ← factor out (n - 2) from each term

= (n - 2)(5n + 6) ← in factored form

HELP ASAP<br>what is the length of bd. round your answer to the nearest hundredth<br><br>​
bija089 [108]

Answer:

BD = 4.99 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the triangle ABD only. The angle formed is 31 degrees which occurs between two sides that are AD and BC. We know that for a right angled triangle, the angle can always be taken as an angle between hypotenuse and base. Thus, The perpendicular sides is then 3 units, where base is BD and Hypotenuse is AD Using formula for tanθ tanθ = Perpendicular/Base tan31 = 3/BD 0.601 = 3/BD BD = 3/0.601 BD = 4.99 units

What is the inverse of f(x)= 1/3x + 2?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

y^-1 = 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 1/3x + 2

The inverse function is where we swap out y for x and x for y. f(x) represents y, so we will be replacing it with x. Then, we solve and get a new equation for the inverse of y.

x = 1/3y + 2 (subtract 2 from both sides)

x - 2 = 1/3y (multiply by 3 on both sides)

y^-1 = 3x - 6

Brainliest, please :)
