Factor this trinomial completely. -12x^2+45x+12

Mathematics

Step-by-step Answer:

Step 1:

Extract factor(s) common to all terms.

In this case, the HCF is 3, so the expression is written

-12x^2+45x+12 = -3(4x^2-15x-4)

The negative sign was also exrracted to give a positive leading coefficient, which is easier to work with.

Step 2, group the coefficient in such a way that there is a common factor.

Leaving the factor -4 for the moment, and concentrate on the coefficients in parentheses, write the original expression as

4x^2 - 15x -4  

= 4x^2 -16x

          +   x -4

= 4x*(x-4) + 1*(x-4)

extract (x-4) as a common factor

= (x-4)(4x+1)

Step 3:

Combine all the factors to get

-3(x-4)(4x+1)

=3(4-x)(4x+1)

as the complete factoring of the given expression.

stich3 [128]

Complete question :

a. Of less than$720?

b. Of more than $840?

c. Between $680 and $760?

Answer:

0.500 ; 0.0013 ; 0.6827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 720

Standard deviation, σ = 40

P(Z < x)

x = (x < 720)

Obtain the standardized value of x

P(x < 720) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x < 720) = (720 - 720) / 40

P(x < 720) = 0

P(Z < 0) = 0.5

B.) More than $840

P(x > 840)

P(x > 840) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x > 840) = (840 - 720) / 40

P(x > 840) = 120 / 40 = 3

P(Z > 3) = 0.0013499 (Z probability calculator)

c. Between $680 and $760?

P(760 < x < 680)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((x - μ) / σ) - ((x - μ) / σ)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((760 - 720) / 40) - (680 - 720) / 40)) = P( Z < - 1) - P(Z < - 1)

P(680 < x < 760) = 0.84134 - 0.15866 = 0.68268

If you look at the rectangle properly, you can see that the diagonal creates two triangles, and if we only focus on one triangle, we can see that the bad of the triangle is 7 and the perpendicular height is 4

Using Pythagorean theorem we can figure out the hypotenuse, or the diagonal
C squared is equal to a squared plus b squared

7^2+4^2 is 65

Square root of 65 is 8.1
