We can factor by grouping. To do so, we multiply the leading coefficient with the constant at the end. In other words, a times c (ax^2 + bx + c).
15*-4 = -60
Now we need to split the b term into two pieces that multiply to -60 and add to 4.
-6 and 10 will work.
Now group one part of b with the 15x^2 and the other part with -4.
(15x^2 + 10x) + (-6x - 4)
Now factor both terms.
5x(3x+2) - 2(3x+2)
3x+2 is one of our factors and 5x-2 is the other.
(3x+2)(5x-2)=0
Now just find the zeros.
3x+2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3
And
5x-2 = 0
5x = 2
x = 2/5
So the answer is x = -2/3 and x = 2/5

Answer:
A. x² -4
B. 2x² +8
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a square is the square of the side lengths. That means the area of each large square is x², since it has a side length of x.
__
A. The area of 4 small squares is subtracted from the area of the large square to find the shaded area:
x² -4×1² = x² -4 . . . area of Figure A
__
B. The area of two small squares is added to the area of two large squares to find the shaded area:
2x² +2×2² = 2x² +8 . . . area of Figure B
Answer:
c) 2
d) 0.96
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
a) probability density function.
![\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{\infty}f(x) dx = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{-\infty}2x^{-3}dx = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{1}2x^{-3}dx\\\\\Rightarrow \big[-x^{-2}\big]^{\infty}_1\\\\\Rightarrow -(0-1) = 1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D_%7B%5Cinfty%7Df%28x%29%20dx%20%3D%201%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D2x%5E%7B-3%7Ddx%20%3D%201%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D_%7B1%7D2x%5E%7B-3%7Ddx%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%5Cbig%5B-x%5E%7B-2%7D%5Cbig%5D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D_1%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20-%280-1%29%20%3D%201)
Thus, it is a probability density function.
b) cumulative distribution function.
c) mean of the distribution
d) probability that the size of random particle will be less than 5 micrometers
-3/2
Down 3
Right 2
As an improper fraction it would be -1 1/2
Answer:
x=5
y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(4х – 9у – 2 = 0)
=-12x+27y+6
12х - 5у + 38
-12x+27y+6
22y=44
y=2
x:
4x-9(2)-2=
=4x-20
4x=20
x=5
