Answer: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

if the bookstore has 64 copies,

yesterday it was sold 1/4 , so it was sold 64/4=16

today it was sold 1/8 from what remained, which is 6(see below)

64-16=48

48/8=6

the store has left 48-6=42

Consider this right triangle with given measures what is the unknown length
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

b = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

b² + 12² = 15²

b² + 144 = 225 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

b² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

b = \sqrt{81} = 9

I need help or I will faill this
kari74 [83]

Answer:

-4x2 + 3x - 225

 ———————————————

        3    

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

               4

Simplify   —

                3

Equation at the end of step  1  :

        4            

 (x -  (— • x2)) -  75

        3            

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

       4x2      

 (x -  ———) -  75

        3      

Step  3  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  3  as the denominator :

         x     x • 3

    x =  —  =  —————

         1       3  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x • 3 - (4x2)     3x - 4x2

—————————————  =  ————————

      3              3    

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 (3x - 4x2)    

 —————————— -  75

     3          

Step  4  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

4.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  3  as the denominator :

         75     75 • 3

   75 =  ——  =  ——————

         1        3    

Step  5  :

Pulling out like terms :

5.1     Pull out like factors :

  3x - 4x2  =   -x • (4x - 3)  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

5.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

-x • (4x-3) - (75 • 3)     -4x2 + 3x - 225

——————————————————————  =  ———————————————

          3                       3        

Step  6  :

Pulling out like terms :

6.1     Pull out like factors :

  -4x2 + 3x - 225  =   -1 • (4x2 - 3x + 225)  

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

6.2     Factoring  4x2 - 3x + 225  

The first term is,  4x2  its coefficient is  4 .

The middle term is,  -3x  its coefficient is  -3 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +225  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   4 • 225 = 900  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  900  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -3 .

     -900    +    -1    =    -901  

     -450    +    -2    =    -452  

     -300    +    -3    =    -303  

     -225    +    -4    =    -229  

     -180    +    -5    =    -185  

     -150    +    -6    =    -156  

For tidiness, printing of 48 lines which failed to find two such factors, was suppressed

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Final result :

 -4x2 + 3x - 225
