Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -31 = -31

Find two factors of -31 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -2 .

-31 + 1 = -30
-1 + 31 = 30

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

lara31 [8.8K]

*see attachment below showing the dot plot and box plot created by Tia

Answer:

Dot plot

Step-by-step explanation:

In a dot plot, the temperature of a day is represented by 1 dot. There are 30 dots on the box plot shown in the attachment that was made by Tia.

This dot plot display makes it easier to find how many days had a temperature that is higher than 15°.

Thus, from the dot plot, we have:

2 dots representing 2 days having a temperature of 16°C each

2 days also have daily temperature of 17°C

2 days have temperature of 18°C as well, and

1 day has temperature of 19° C.

Therefore, the number of days that had a temperature above 15°C is 7 days.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer: B.

Step-by-step explanation: A triangle is 180 degrees. m< a + b + c = 180, so 75+20+x=180, so x = 85. B.

Write the equation of the
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5} x+3  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, we already know two points the line intersects. It states that the line has a y-intercept of 3. The y-intercept is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis. Thus, the line also intersects (0,3). (Remember that all points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0.) Now we have enough information to write an equation.  

1) Find the slope of the line with the slope formula, m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. Substitute the x and y values of (-5,2) and (0,3) into the formula and solve:

m = \frac{(3)-(2)}{(0)-(-5)} \\m = \frac{3-2}{0+5}\\m = \frac{1}{5}

So, the slope of the line is \frac{1}{5}.

2) Now we can write the equation in slope-intercept form, represented by the formula y = mx + b. Substitute values for m and b in the formula.

The m represents the slope, so substitute \frac{1}{5} for it. The b represents the y-intercept, so substitute 3\\ for it. This gives the following answer and equation in slope-intercept form:  

y = \frac{1}{5} x+3
