In baseball, a player's batting average is calculated by dividing the number of hits by the numbers of at-bats. If player A's ba

tting average is .296 and he had 446 at-bats , how many hits did he get?

8 0

Average = no of hits / no of at-bats
0.296 = x / 446
0.296/ 446 = x
132.016
No of hits ≈ 132

Answer:

(x+5) and (x-7).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

$x^2-2x-35$

We need to write it in factored form.

We know that,

7×5 = 35 and 7-5 = 2

So,

$x^2-2x-35=x^2-7x+5x-35\\\\=x(x-7)+5(x-7)\\\\=(x+5)(x-7)$

Hence, the required factors are (x+5) and (x-7).

How can you tell the zeros of this function by looking at the graph? What are the zeros of the function?

Harrizon [31]

Zero points are these points, where your graph cross x-axis (vertical). And zeros are x values for these points

What is the most precise name for a quadrilateral with the following vertices:

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(2,3) B(7,2) C(6,-1) D(1,0)

Plot the quadrilateral'

using a graphing tool

The quadrilateral ABCD in the attached figure

Verify the length of the sides

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find distance AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(2-3)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(5)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 2

Find distance BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 3

Find distance CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0+1)^{2}+(1-6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}$

$d_C_D=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 4

Find distance AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_D=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 5

Compare the length sides

AB=CD

BC=AD

Opposite sides are congruent

<em>Verify the slope of the sides</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find slope AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-3}{7-2}$

$m=\frac{-1}{5}$

$m_A_B=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 2

Find slope BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$m=\frac{-1-2}{6-7}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_B_C=3$

step 3

Find slope CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0+1}{1-6}$

$m=\frac{1}{-5}$

$m_C_D=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 4

Find slope AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0-3}{1-2}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_A_D=3$

step 5

Compare the slopes

$m_A_B=m_C_D$

$m_B_C=m_A_D$

The slope of the opposite sides are equal, that means, opposite sides are parallel

The slopes of consecutive sides are not opposite reciprocal, that means, consecutive sides are not perpendicular

therefore

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram
