To factor, you do the opposite of what you would in distributive property. You have to find the greatest common factor, or GCF, of 4 and -2.

  4                   2

------              -------

1  |  4              1 | 2

2 |  2

So the GCF is 2. Now we factor the expression.

4x-2

2(2x-1)

Determine the holes, vertical asymptotes, and horizontal asymptotes of the rational function y=3x^2+10x-8/x^2+7x+12
kompoz [17]
There would be a hole when x = -4.

If you factor both the top and the bottom, you will see that the factor (x + 4) is in both the numerator and denominator. Therefore, the would be a hole when x = -4 because that would also make the denominator 0.

Sixty seven percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 58 percent of the employees in the company have
Kazeer [188]

Answer: The proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of employees having managerial positions = 67%

Probability of employees having MBA degrees = 58%

Probability of managers having MBA degrees = 67%

So, using probability formulas, we get that

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.67+0.58-0.67\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.58

Hence, the proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Sir Ving Spoon earned $5,436 on his $7,550 certificate of deposit. If he had the CD for 12 years, what simple interest rate did
Lilit [14]

6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Sir Ving Spoon earned $5,436 on his $7,550 certificate of deposit.

From this given information,

It can be determined that the Principal amount is $7550 and the interest amount is $5436.

The CD is for 12 years. Therefore, the number of years is 12.

<u>To find the interest rate (r) :</u>

Using the simple interest formula,

Interest = P×r×t

where,

  • P is the principal amount = $7550
  • r is the rate of interest.
  • t is the number of years = 12

⇒ 5436 = 7550 × r × 12

⇒ 5436 = 90600 × r

⇒ r = 5436 / 90600

⇒ r = 0.06

Multiply by 100 to represent in rate %

⇒ r = 0.06 × 100

⇒ r = 6%

∴ 6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.

There are 18 boys in a class there are w fewer boys than girls how many students are there in the class
Pachacha [2.7K]
The Number of boys in the class is: 18

 Let's call "g" to the number of girls in the class.

 The problem says that there is "w" fewer boys than girls, so we have:

 g-w=18

 Then, the number of girls in the class  is:

 g=18+w

 Let's call "x" to the total number of studens in the class:

 x=g+18

 When we substitute g=18+w  into x=g+18, we obtain:

 x= (18+w)+18

 The total number of studens in the class is:

 x=w+36
