Problem: 2x^2+3x-9
For a polynomial of the form, ax^2+bx+c rewrite the middle term as the sum of two terms whose product a·c=2·-9=-18 and whose sum is b=3.
Factor 3 out of 3x
2x^2+3(x)-9
Rewrite 3 as -3 plus 6.
2x^2+(-3+6)x-9
Apply the distributive property
2x^2(-3x+6x)-9
Remove the parentheses
2x^2-3x+6x-9
Factor out the greatest common factor from each group
Group the first two terms and the last two terms
(2x^2-3x) (6x-9)
Factor out the greatest common factor in each group.
x(2x-3)+3(2x-3)
Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, 2x-3
(x+3) (2x-3). So, the quotient is 2x-3
Answer: Try using Symbolab (i have no idea what the answer is sry)
0.4 decreased because if you do 3.0 + 3.4 =0.4
Answer:
Let x be the number of silver medals.
As there were two more gold medals than silver ones, gold medals are x+2
We also know that the number of bronze medals was 4 less than the sum of gold and silver, so if there are x + 2 of gold and x of silver, there are x+x+2-4 of bronze.
Now, we can do an equation, as we know there were a total of 28 medals:
x + x + 2 + x + x + 2 - 4 = 28
And we isolate x:
4x = 28
x = 28/4 = 7
There were 7 silver medals, so there were 9 gold ones (7-2) and 12 of bronze (9+7-4).
[67.9 %, 82.1 %] is the answer when it has 95% confidence interval for the proportion of test-takers who answered the question correctly. So the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of test takers is [67.9 %, 82.1 %] who answered the question correctly, In order to random sample of 144 test-takers and 75% answered question correctly. So the answer in this question is [67.9 %, 82.1 %].
