Answer:

(x + 4) and (x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 5x + 4

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 4) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are 4 and 1 , since

4 × 1 = 4 and 4 + 1 = 5 , then

x² + 5x + 4 = (x + 4)(x + 1) ← in factored form

Simplify the expression by factoring, showing the steps in your work.

Given:

$$\frac{12 x^{2}+31 x+7}{16 x^{2}+8 x+1}$

To find:

The simplified expression by factoring.

Solution:

Let us factor the numerator:

$12 x^{2}+31 x+7$

31x can be written as 3x + 28x.

$=\left(12 x^{2}+3 x\right)+(28 x+7)$

Take 3x common in 1st two terms and 7 common in next two terms.

$=3 x(4 x+1)+7(4 x+1)$

Make sure the remaining terms in the both brackets must be same.

Now, take out common factor (4x + 1).

$=(4 x+1)(3 x+7)$

In the same way, factorize the denominator:

$16 x^{2}+8 x+1$

8x can be written as 4x + 4x.

$=(16 x^{2}+4 x)+(4x+1)$

Take 4x common in 1st two terms and 1 common in next two terms.

$=4x(4 x+1)+1(4x+1)$

Make sure the remaining terms in the both brackets must be same.

Now, take out common factor (4x + 1).

$=(4x+1)(4x+1)$

Substitute the terms we found for numerator and denominator:

$$\frac{12 x^{2}+31 x+7}{16 x^{2}+8 x+1}=\frac{(4 x+1)(3 x+7)}{(4 x+1)(4 x+1)}$

Cancel the common factors.

$$=\frac{3 x+7}{4 x+1}$

The simplified expression is $\frac{3 x+7}{4 x+1}$ .

The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.14 mm. If the s

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: A. H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions:

Null hypothesis $(H_0)$ is a statement describing population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes "≤,≥,=" signs.
Alternative hypothesis $(H_a)$ is a statement opposite to the null hypothesis elaborating population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes ">, <, ≠" signs.

Given: The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters.

If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. so, Mean diameter ≠ 5.8 to work correctly.

i.e. $H_a: \text{Mean}\neq 5.8$

So, $H_a: \text{Mean =5.8}$

The required null and alternative hypotheses:

H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.

If each quadrilateral below is a parallelogram,find the missing measures

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use parallelogram properties to answer our given problems.

(1) Since we know that opposite sides of parallelogram are congruent, therefore measure of side MN and side KN will be equal to the measure of their opposite sides.

LM=KN and KL=MN

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

45=KN and 31=MN

Property: The opposite angles of parallelogram are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary.

We have been given , therefore .

We will find measure of angle K by using supplementary angles.

By opposite angles of parallelogram .

(2) Opposite sides of parallelogram are equal. Therefore, CF=DE and FE=CD.

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

CF=10 and FE=15.

Property: Diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

So CE will be 2 times CG and GD will be half the length of FD.

(3) Property: Opposite sides of parallelogram are congruent.

and

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

and

Property: Diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

So SQ will be 2 times TQ and PT will be half the length of PR.

Property: The opposite angles of parallelogram are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary.

Alternate interior angles.

Opposite angles of parallelogram.

Therefore, measure of angle QRS will 74 degrees.

Alternate interior angles.

Now let us find measure of angle PSQ.
