Factorise 24e^2-28e-12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4(2e - 3)(3e + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

24e² - 28e - 12 ← factor out 4 from each term

= 4(6e² - 7e - 3) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the e² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the e- term.

product = 6 × - 3 = - 18 and sum = - 7

The factors are - 9 and + 2

Use these factors to split the e- term

6e² - 9e + 2e - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3e(2e - 3) + 1 (2e - 3) ← factor out (2e - 3) from each term

= (2e - 3)(3e + 1)

Then

24e² - 28e - 12 = 4(2e - 3)(3e + 1) ← in factored form

What is the whole number portion of the decimal? (5.024) What is the decimal portion of the decimal? (176.261)
oksian1 [2.3K]

The whole number portion is always the number to the left of the decimal. In this case it is 5. You have to be careful what you say if you are working in scientific notation.

For your second question 0.261 is the decimal portion. If the only part present was 0.261,  then 0 is the whole number portion, believe it or not. Nice question. You can learn a lot from it.

A package is secured with ribbon. Two pieces of ribbon,
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

A total of 387 centimeters of ribbon are used.

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know that two out of three pieces of ribbon are 1.25 meters.

The third piece of ribbon is 120 millimeters (mm) longer.

1 millimeters = 0.001 meters

120 x 0.001 = 0.12

That means that the third piece of ribbon is 0.12 meters longer than the first two. The length of the third ribbon is 1.25 m + 0.12 m = 1.37 m

In order to find the total number of meters of ribbon used, we need to do addition.

1.25 m + 1.25 m + 1.37 m = 3.87 m

But, the question is asking us the number of centimeters of ribbon that are used.

1 m = 100 cm

3.87 x 100 = 387 cm

Therefore, a total of 387 centimeters of ribbon are used.

Hope this helps! Have a blessed day! :)

There are 17 kites in a kite-flying contest at the beach. There are 3 times as many box kites as butterfly kites. There are 2 mo
alina1380 [7]
C is your answer. 5x + 2 = 17

First let’s get them all in terms of x:
Box kites = 3x
Dragon kites = x + 2
Butterfly kites = x

Adding all those up:

x + 3x + x + 2 = 17
Combine like terms:
5x + 2 = 17
