Factor this polynomial expression.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. (5x - 4)(3x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

\longrightarrow 15x² - 2x - 8

The coefficient of x² is 15 and the constant term is -8. The product of 15 and -8 is -120. The factors of -120 which sum to -2 are 10 and -12.

So,

\longrightarrow 15x² + (10 - 12)x - 8

\longrightarrow 15x² + 10x - 12x - 8

\longrightarrow 5x(3x + 2) - 4(3x + 2)

\longrightarrow (5x - 4)(3x + 2)

A user’s password to access a computer system consists of 3 letters followed by 2 digits. How many different passwords are possi
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

26*26*26 = 17576 ways to select 3 letters

10*10= 100 ways to select 2 numbers

So then the total number of ways are:

26^3 *10^2 = 1757600 possible ways

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume that we have 26 letters from A to Z and 10 numbers from 0 to 9 .

And we want to calculate the number of possible passwords possible if the password consists of 3 letters followed by 2 digits.

And for this case we can use the multiplication principle of combinatories, since we don't have any restriction about the letters of the numbers we can have repetition of letters or numbers.

For the number of possible letters:

26*26*26 = 17576 ways to select 3 letters

10*10= 100 ways to select 2 numbers

So then the total number of ways are:

26^3 *10^2 = 1757600 possible ways

Solve the following system of equations graphically on the set of axes below. y=3x−3 , x+y=5
topjm [15]

Answer:

x=2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, graph both equations on a rectangular coordinate system (see attached screenshot). Then, simply figure out where these two lines intersect. Since they intersect at (2,3), x=2 and y=3.

Plugging these values in the equations for x and y, you can see if these are the correct answers:

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

Since both of these are true, you have the right answer.

Hope this helps!
