Answer:

2x^4-11x^3+68x-80

2x^4-4x^3-7x^3+14x^2-14x^2+28x+40x-80

2x^3(x-2)-7x^2(x-2)-14x(x-2)+40(x-2)

(x-2)(2x^3-7x^2-14x+40)

(x-2)(2x^3-4x^2-3x^2+6x-20x+40)

(x-2)(2x^2(x-2)-3x(x-2)-20(x-2))

(x-2)(x-2)(2x^3-3x-20)

(x-2)(x-2)(2x^2+5x-8x-20)

(x-2)(x-2)(x(2x+5)-4(2x+5))

(x-2)(x-2)(2x+5)(x-4)

(x-2)^2(2x+5)(x-4)

Expression related to -1/3(6x+15)-3
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

x = -4 and -2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

-1/3(6x + 15) - 3

-6/3x - 15/3 - 3

-2x - 5 - 3

-2x - 8

<u>Step 2:  IF NEEDED SOLVE FOR X</u>

-2x - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8

-2x / -2 = 8 / -2

x = -4

Answer:  x = -4 and -2x - 8

The length of a board is 2 5/8 feet long. If 5/6 of a foot is trimmed off, find the new length
nalin [4]

Answer:

New length is 3 3/20 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total board is 2 5/8 feet long. And since 5/6 of a foot is trimmed off, that means each piece of wood is 5/6 feet.

We can now set up an equation like this ---> 5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8

Now we're going to simplify --->  5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8

                                                      5/6 ⋅ x = 21/8              

                                                      (multiply both sides by 6)

                                                      5x = 63/4

                                                      (divide both sides by 5)

                                                      x = 63/20

                                                      x= 3.15

So, the new length is 3.15 feet long, or 3 3/20 in mixed fraction.

Find the real numbers x and y if -3+ix^2y and x^2+y+4i are conjugate of each other. Pls solve with the steps
Firdavs [7]
ANSWER
x = ±1 and y = -4.
Either x = +1 or x = -1 will work

EXPLANATION
If -3 + ix²y and x² + y + 4i are complex conjugates, then one of them can be written in the form a + bi and the other in the form a - bi. In other words, between conjugates, the imaginary parts are same in absolute value but different in sign (b and -b). The real parts are the same

For -3 + ix²y
⇒ real part: -3
⇒ imaginary part: x²y

For x² + y + 4i
⇒ real part: x² + y (since x, y are real numbers)
⇒ imaginary part: 4

Therefore, for the two expressions to be conjugates, we must satisfy the two conditions. 

Condition 1: Imaginary parts are same in absolute value but different in sign. We can set the imaginary part of -3 + ix²y to be the negative imaginary part of x² + y + 4i so that the 

   x²y = -4 ... (I)

Condition 2: Real parts are the same

   x² + y = -3 ... (II)

We have a system of equations since both conditions must be satisfied

   x²y = -4 ... (I)
   x² + y = -3 ... (II)

We can rearrange equation (II) so that we have

   y = -3 - x² ... (II)

Substituting into equation (I)

   x²y = -4 ... (I)
   x²(-3 - x²) = -4
   -3x² - x⁴ = -4
   x⁴ + 3x² - 4 = 0
   (x² + 4)(x² - 1) = 0
   (x² + 4)(x-1)(x+1) = 0

Therefore, x = ±1.
Leave alone (x² + 4) as it gives no real solutions.

Solve for y:

   y = -3 - x² ... (II)
   y = -3 - (±1)²
   y = -3 - 1
   y = -4

So x = ±1 and y = -4. We can confirm this results in conjugates by substituting into the expressions:

   -3 + ix²y 
   = -3 + i(±1)²(-4)
   = -3 - 4i

   x² + y + 4i
   = (±1)² - 4 + 4i
   = 1 - 4 + 4i
   = -3 + 4i

They result in conjugates

Factor the following expression <br> 10x^5+5x^3-14x^2-7-
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

C. (5x^3-7)(2x^2+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

10x^5+5x^3-14x^2-7

=10x^5-14x^2 + 5x^3 - 7  (By the commutative property)

=2x^2(5x^3-7)+5x^3-7     (Taking 2x^3 common from first two terms )

=(5x^3-7)(2x^2+1)      (Taking 5x^3-7 common from both terms)

\implies 10x^5+5x^3-14x^2-7=(5x^3-7)(2x^2+1)

Hence, Option C is correct

Shashi Rimoko earns $620 per week as a chef. He has group
finlep [7]

Out of the weekly amount that Shashi Rimoko makes, a deduction of $37.93 is made for insurance.

The total Medical cost is $9,560 and out of this, the amount paid by Shashi per year is:

<em>= Amount x (1 - percentage paid by restaurant)</em>

= 9,560 x ( 1 - 80%)

= $1,912

The amount he pays for Dental coverage is:

<em>= Amount x (1 - percentage paid by restaurant)</em>

= 172 x (1 - 65%)

= $60.20

The total amount he pays for insurance per year is:

<em>= Medical + Dental </em>

= 1,912 + 60.20

= $1,972.20

The weekly deduction is:

<em>= Year amount / No. of weeks in year </em>

= 1,972.20 / 52

= $37.93

In conclusion, $37.93 is deducted from his paycheck every week.
