Answer:
f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x³-5x²+4x-20 1. Just group randomly
f(x)=x²(x-5)+4(x-5) 2. Factor the groupings
f(x)=(x²+4)(x-5)
<u>f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)</u> 3. Factor the difference of two squares
Answer:6.774 gallons
Explanation: They drove 210 miles with 31 miles per gallon. So you divide 220/31=x
X=6.774 gallons
Answer:
The answer is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
He spent $9.50 in total. To find this answer, you write the equation 2(9.95) + 3(1.20). You would distribute getting 5.90 + 3.60= $9.50.
Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
