Answer:

n = 220, 4, -4, -220

Step-by-step explanation:

factors of 17: 17, 1, -1, -17

13 is prime number: 13 x  1 = 13

(ax+b)(cx+d) = axcx+axd+bcx+bd

(x + 17)(13x - 1) = 13x^2 + 220x - 17, n = 220

(x - 17)(13x + 1) = 13x^2 - 220x - 17, n = -220

(x + 1)(13x - 17) = 13x^2 - 4x - 17, n = -4

(x - 1)(13x + 17) = 13x^2 + 4x - 17, n = 4

What is the measurement of angle 2?
Alchen [17]
A straight line has an angle of 180. A right angle has an angle of 90. Angle 3 is the same as angle 80°, 6, and 8. Angle 2 is the same as angle 4, 5, and 7. All you have to do is subtract the angle you know from 180, and what will be left off is Angle 3.
Then you find out what angles are the same and you have your answer.

Kevin cycles 18 miles every morning as part of his exercise. The time it takes him to complete the distance varies inversely as
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The T = \frac{18}{m} best models the amount of time it takes him to finish with kelvin cycling .

Option (A) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Kevin cycles 18 miles every morning as part of his exercise.

The time it takes him to complete the distance varies inversely as the speed at which he rides.

Time \propto \frac{1}{Speed}

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

As m miles per hour is represented the speed.

T is the time taken by Kevin cycle for morning exercise .

Distance = 18

Putting the values in the above

T = \frac{18}{m}

Therefore the T = \frac{18}{m} best models the amount of time it takes him to finish with kelvin cycling .

Option (A) is correct.

The amount of profit, p, you earn by selling knives, k, can be determined by: p=200k-500 a) Determine the constraints on profit
Natalka [10]
We are given with the formula
p = 200k - 500
a) The constraint for this formula is obtained from the idea that the profit must be positive
200k - 500 > 0 
k > 500/200
k > 2.5
b) To make 14000 profit
 14000 = 200k - 500
k = 72.5 or 73 knives must be sold
