For a polynomial of the form ax^2+bx+c rewrite the middle term as a sum of two terms whose product is a⋅c=5⋅4=20 and whose sum is b=12.

<u>Factor 12 out of 12x.</u>

5x^2+12(x)+4

<u>Rewrite 12 as 2 plus 10</u>

5x^2+(2+10)x+4

Apply the distributive property.

5x^2+2x+10x+4

Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

Group the first two terms and the last two terms.

(5x^2+2x)+10x+4

Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from each group.

x(5x+2)+2(5x+2)

Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, 5x+25x+2.

(5x+2)(x+2)

please help :) Which sentence is true? A. 9.46 times 10 to the 12 power &gt; 4.0 times 10 to the 13 power B. 9.46 times 10 to th
Vikki [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is simple because they use powers of 10. When something is multiplied by a power of ten, it is essentially moving the decimal point over for every power.

9.46x10^12= 9460000000000

4.0x10^13= 40000000000000

Although 4 itself is less than 9.46, since is is being multiplied by 10^13, it will be one decimal place bigger.

Joseph has a collection of stickers. When the stickers are aranged in piles of 3, there are 2 stickers left over. When the stick
Elodia [21]

Answer:

2 stickers will be left over

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question, all you need to do is figure out at what value of stickers would the remaining stickers be equal to 2 if the piles are made up of either 3 to a set or 4 to a set. To do this, we need to figure out the size of the whole set of stickers.

Lets assume that the total number of stickers is 14. Lets test the 2 given conditions. If we divide it in piles of 3 then we will have a pile of 12 stickers (4 piles of 3 stickers each) with 2 stickers remaining.

Lets test the second condition. If we divide it in piles of 4, we will again have 12 stickers (3 piles of 4 stickers each) with 2 stickers remaining.

Now that both conditions have been satisfied, all we have to do is see how many stickers are left if we make a pile of 12 stickers. In this case, we will have just one pile of 12 stickers and, again, we will be left with 2 stickers.

Therefore, the answer is 2 stickers

Which expression is equivalent to 4x2 - 4x – 3 in factored form?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

(2x-3)(2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2 - 4x - 3

we need two numbers that give 12 when multiplied and 4 when subtracted

the numbers are 6 and 2 because 6*2=12 and 6-4=4.

4x^2 - (6-2)x -3

4x^2 -6x +2x -3

take common

2x(2x -3)+1(2x-3)

take (2x-3) as common

(2x-3)(2x*1 + 1*1)

(2x-3)(2x+1)

Will mark Brainliest if you help me quickly! Helppppp!
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Let C represent the total cost of each deal  

Let T be the number of trips down the water slide

C = 32        for the 1st deal since the cost is the same regardless of how much she rides  

C = 18 + T  for the 2nd deal

To find when the two costs are equal set them equal to each other and solve for T

32 = 18 + T

T = 14  trips

The cost must be $32 since that is the only cost possible for the 1st deal
