Answer:

$\large\boxed{x^2-4x-5=(x+1)(x-5)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{The factored form:}\\\\ax^2+bx+c=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)\\\\x_1,\ x_2-the\ zeros\\==============================\\\\\text{We have}\ x^2-4x-5:\\\\x^2-4x-5=x^2+x-5x-5=x(x+1)-5(x+1)\\\\x^2-4x-5=(x+1)(x-5)$

Answer: Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing

n ( 1 + n )

Step-by-step explanation:

P( Bob hits target ) = 1/3

P( Eve hits target ) = 2/3

P( Carol hits target ) = 1

<u>Compute the P that Bob wins in a duel against Eve alone</u>

P(Bob hits the target in first shot ) = n = 1/3

P(Bob hits the target in second shot ) = n^2 = ( 1/3 * 1/3 ) = 1/9

hence the probability of Bob winning( i.e. P( Bob wins Event E1 ) = n + n^2 = n ( 1 + n )

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:5 if A is at (0, 15) and B is at (20, 0).

Airida [17]

a ratio of 5 : 5 simplifies to 1 : 1, which basically means we require the midpoint of the line segment

using the midpoint formula

M = [ $\frac{1}{2}$ (0 + 20 ), $\frac{1}{2}$ (15 + 0)] = (10, 7.5 )
