Pls can someone help me factorise this: a²+9a+8

Mathematics
1 answer:
aev [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(a + 8)(a + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first term is squared, so we can put it out like this:

a * a

The third term has to be separated so that the sum of the two factors is the coefficient of the second term, 9.

8 = 4 * 2 (does 4 +/- 2 = 9? nope, we can't use that)

8 = 8 * 1 (does 8+/- 1 = 9? yes, when 8 + 1)

So the factor is a + 8 and a + 1.

Put this together and (a+8)(a+1)

-4 + 3y = -43<br> what does y equal?
NeTakaya

Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

We remove the -4 by adding 4 to each side:

3y = -43 + 4

Now we simplify to give:

3y = -39

So now we divide both sides by 3 to give our answer of:

y = -39/3
y = -13
We can substitute this into the original equation to check our answer:

-4 + 3(-13) = -43

-4 + -39 = -43

!!! CAN SOMEONE HELP !!! (PLEASE ILL GIVE BRAINLIST)
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

120 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

the total bill was $58 so we have to subtract the $40 monthly bill part to find how much extra money she paid because her call was over 200 minutes

58-40=18

Then divide the $18 by $0.15 since the $18 is the total amount of each time she was charged $0.15 for going 1 minute over 200 minutes

18÷0.15 = 120

120 is te Amount Of minutes she went over her 200 minute limit

The expected value of business profit is the sum of probability times profit:

... 0.2×(-10,000) + 0.4×0 + 0.3×5,000 + 0.1×8,000

... = -2000 + 1500 + 800

... = 300 . . . dollars

The expected value of the business return is slightly positve, so Claire should invest in the business.
