Answer:
C. (5x - 1)(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
In a factoring problem by hand, the common steps to solve would be the "AM" method, or (Add-Multiply). Simply stated, finding what adds to the x-coeficient and what multiplies to the constant. In this case, what adds to 39(x) and what multiplies to 8. Just reading that, we can see that there aren't any numbers that can do that, so we have to improvise. Set up the problem equal to something that it can factor into:
- <em>Multiply the 5 and -8</em> = -40: <em>this is what we will factor</em>
- <em>The factors with add to 39 are 40 and -1</em>.
- <em>Set up the problem:</em>
Now, we can fo the math:
8(5x - 1) + x(5x - 1)
<em>Factor (5x - 1) from this:</em>
(5x - 1)(x + 8)
And we have our answer.
Answer:
63/50 meters^2 or in mixed number: 1 13/50 meters^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area= length * width
length = 4 1/5= 21/5 . Multiply the whole number with the denominator. 4*5= 20 . Add 20 with the numerator. 20+1=22
width= 3/10
21/5* 3/10 ( Multiply the denominators together). ( Multiply the numerators together).
21*3 / 5*10
Answer:
Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch 
(0.167) shirts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mike can stitch 7 shirts in 42 hours
to calculate the time that he takes to make 1 shirt, we have to divide 42 by 7.
He can stitch 1 shirt in = 
= 6 hours
Now we calculate the work done in one hour.
He can stitch in 1 hour = shirts or 0.167 shirts
Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch shirts.
X=-8 final answer. hope that helps
Answer:
Length of the room is 180 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular room with dimensions:
width = 70 ft and length "x" (unknown)
Perimeter of a rectangle is 2*w + 2*x and according to problem statement 500 ft of lights will fit exactly in room perimeter then:
2*70 + 2*x = 500
140 + 2*x = 500
2*x = 500 - 140
2*x = 360
x = 360/2
x = 180 ft
