Answer:

(p + 6)(p + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe you meant  p^2 + 8p + 12 = 0, in which " ^ " indicates exponentiation.

Note that 12 = 2*6, and that these two factors, 2 and 6, add up to 8.  Thus,

p^2 + 8p + 12 = 0 = (p + 6)(p + 2)

Factor the expression below.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

A. (6x + 7)(6x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

use difference of squares, which says a^2 - b^2 =(a+b)(a-b)

take the square roots of the two numbers, 6x and 7, and use them as a and b

The base of a solid in the first quadrant of the xy plane is a right triangle bounded by the coordinate axes and the line x + y
Ivahew [28]

The area of an equilateral triangle of side "s" is s^2*sqrt(3)/4. So the volume of the slices in your problem is 

(x - x^2)^2 * sqrt(3)/4. 

Integrating from x = 0 to x = 1, we have 

[(1/3)x^3 - (1/2)x^4 + (1/5)x^5]*sqrt(3)/4 

= (1/30)*sqrt(3)/4 = sqrt(3)/120 = about 0.0144. 

Since this seems quite small, it makes sense to ask what the base area might be...integral from 0 to 1 of (x - x^2) dx = (1/2) - (1/3) = 1/6. Yes, OK, the max height of the triangles occurs where x - x^2 = 1/4, and most of the triangles are quite a bit shorter...

Suppose there is no outcome common to all three of the events A, B, and C.
mina [271]

Answer:

Yes, the event are mutually exclusive...

Step-by-step explanation:

Event are mutually exclusive if those event cannot occur at the same time. That is the definition of mutually exclusive for instance in a football match, a certain team canot score 0 and 2goals in a match, it is either he scored 2goals or zero goals... In a throw of a coin we cannot have head and tail at the same time, it is either we have a head or a tail, all the event are mutually exclusive.

Now if we have a dealer selling blue car and two doors car. Let say 20% are blue and 10% have two doors. Then, this are not mutually exclusive because we can have a car that is blue and have two doors.

Mutually exclusive events are like disjoint set in SET theory, where A intersection B intersection C is equal to empty set.

Where A n B n C= {} empty set

Given that sine= 21/29, what is the value of cos 0, for 0° <0<90°? A -square root of 20/29 B -20/29 C 20/29 D square root
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sin=y/r

cos=x/r

sin=21/29

cos=x/29

x^2+y^2=r^2

x^2+21^2=29^2

x^2+441=841

x=sqrt(841-441)

x=20

cos=20/29

                       

  Only              |

   sin +             |     All Positive

---------------------|-------------------

           only      |    Only cos +

            tan +    |
