This is a question of permutation, where;

There is only one farmer who who has to plow four field. The farmer can choose to start and end with any field. Since ordering is critical, permutation theory comes into play.

Orders of plowing = nPr = n!/(n-r)!

Where
n = 4
r = 1
Substituting;
Orders of plowing = 4P1 = 4!/(4-1)! = 4

Factor. 3x2 + 20x + 25

algol [13]

Answer:

(3 x + 5) (x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

3 x^2 + 20 x + 25

Hint: | Factor 3 x^2 + 20 x + 25 by finding factors of 3×25 whose sum is 20.

Factor the quadratic 3 x^2 + 20 x + 25. The coefficient of x^2 is 3 and the constant term is 25. The product of 3 and 25 is 75. The factors of 75 which sum to 20 are 5 and 15. So 3 x^2 + 20 x + 25 = 3 x^2 + 15 x + 5 x + 25 = 5 (3 x + 5) + x (3 x + 5):

5 (3 x + 5) + x (3 x + 5)

Hint: | Factor common terms from 5 (3 x + 5) + x (3 x + 5).

Factor 3 x + 5 from 5 (3 x + 5) + x (3 x + 5):

Answer: (3 x + 5) (x + 5)
