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.

Factor 12 out of 12x.

5x^2+12(x)+4

Rewrite 12 as 2 plus 10

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)

horsena [70]

Orientation may change, but the measure of its angles will stay the same. A translation does not change the shape of a figure, it only moves its location and direction.

Bath and 1 yard of ribbon. She is 1/2 yard for project. She wants to divide the rest of the ribbon into pieces 1/4 yards long. H

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of ribbon = 1 yard

Length of ribbon used for project = $\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Length of ribbon the rest of ribbon is to be divided = $\frac{1}{4}$ yard

To find:

The number of ribbons of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard that can be made = ?

Solution:

Length of ribbon left after the 1 yard ribbon is used for project can be calculated by subtracting the length of ribbon used from the initial length of ribbon.

i.e.

Length of ribbon left = $1-\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Now, number of ribbon of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard can be found be dividing the length of ribbon left with the length of ribbon pieces to be cut.

i.e.

Number of ribbons:

$\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4 = 2$
