Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Synthetic division is one way to determine whether or not a given number is a root of the quadratic. x^2 − 12x − 20 can be rewritten as x^2 - 12x + 36 - 36 - 20, or (x - 6)^2 - 56, which does not have integer solutions:

(x - 6)^2 - 56 = 0 becomes (x - 6)^2 = 56, which works out to x - 6 = ± 2√14.

None of the possible roots suggested in this problem turns out to be an actual root.

correct response: PRIME

Hannah was asked to make d the subject of the formula<br> d-7=4d+3/e<br> Finish her question.

Answer:

$d = \frac{-1}{e} - \frac{7}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make d the subject of the formula, you need to isolate it.

- You started with d-7 = 4d + 3/e

- Move 4d to the left side by subtracting 4d from both sides to cancel it from the right so you have...

d - 7 = 4d + 3/e This will leave you left with -3d - 7 = 3/e

-4d -4d

- Then move over the -7 by adding 7 to both sides...

-3d - 7 = 3/e This will leave you left with -3d = 3/e + 7

+7 +7

- Finally to get d by itself divide both sides of the equation by -3 and you'll be left with...

$d = \frac{3}{-3e} -\frac{7}{3}$

- You can cancel out the 3 in the -3/3e and make it -1/e so your final answer will be

$d = \frac{-1}{e} - \frac{7}{3}$

Describe two methods for converting a mixed number to a decimal

uysha [10]

R example: 6 1/2 = 13/2 = 6.5

For the first example, six and a half is equal to thirteen halves, which is then equal to six point five. To do this, the rule to turn a mix number into a fraction is by multiplying the 2 with the 6 and then add the answer to 1, which gives 13/2 (Remember to always give the same denominator). Finally, thirteenth halves is equal to six point five (because when you divide 13 by 2, you get 6 and one left over. To continue dividing, add a 0 , and so 10 goes into 2 is five. so the decimal is 6.5
