Answer:

x = 5, x = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic function which may factor to the form (x - a)(x - b) whose zeroes are a and b.

To factor this we need two numbers whose product is +60 and whose sum is -17. They are -5 and -12 ( -5*-12 = 60 and -12 + -5 = -17).

So the factors are :

(x - 5)(x - 17)

To find the zeros we equate this to 0:

(x - 5)(x - 17) = 0

x- 5 = 0 gives x = 5

and

x - 12 = 0 gives x = 12.

Answer:

x = 1&16

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 0 then

0 =x^2 - 17x + 16

(x-1)(x-16) =0

x -1 =0 or x-16=0

x =1 & x = 16

Choose whether the expression is a result of multiplying

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Take out 5 as a common factor. It will be easier to look at.

5(5c^2 + 11c + 6)

5(5C +6 )(c + 1 )

Now you can put the 5 inside.

(25c + 30)(c + 1) is one answer.

(5c + 6)(5c + 5) is another.

The answer is multiplying binomials. There is nothing that that is squared and the answers are not conjugates. They are two binomials multiplied together.

today's local newspaper lists 20 stocks of local interest. of those stocks ten increased five decreased and five remained unchan

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

P(x=2) = 0.2368

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

stocks of local interest N = 20

stocks increased K = 10

stocks decreased = 5

remained unchanged = 5

solution

we take here no of stock that are increased randomly n = 2

so here Hypergeometric random variable can take integer value

{max(0, n+k - N ), min(n,K) } = {0,2}

so here

P(x=2)

P(x=k) = $\frac{(^K_k)\times (^{N-K}_{n-k}) }{(^N_n)}$ .......................1

P(x=2 ) = $\frac{(^{10}_2)\times (^{20-10}_{2-2}) }{(^{20}_2)}$

solve it we get

P(x=2 ) = 0.236842

now we use excel function as

HYPGEOM.DIST (k,n,N.cumulative) .....................2

so it will be

HYPGEOM.DIST (2,2,10,,false)

we get

HYPGEOM.DIST (2,2,10,,false) = 0.236842

P(x=2) = 0.2368
