Okay. When it comes to multiplying decimals, you multiply them just like you would do whole numbers. However, solving them by paper, you would add a decimal point into the answer, depending on how many numbers are behind the decimal point in the numbers being multiplied. In this case, the decimal point will go in front of two numbers, because there are two numbers behind the decimal point in -1.2 and 0.4. Know that the answer will be negative, because there is one negative and one positive number.
Multiply both numbers. -1.2 * 0.4 is -0.48. There. The product is -0.48.
Answer:
176 words
Step-by-step explanation:
1) well we want to find the amount of words we'd be able to type in 4 minutes. so, what i did was:
<u>44 words</u> = <u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>
1 minutes = 4 minutes
2) now look at how i set up the proportion, notice how i left a variable of x for the value i didn't know.
3) we also know that 1 times 4 is 4, so it'd also make sense to also multiply the numerator by 4 too!!
4) multiplying 44 by 4 would get us our answer which is 176
im not the best at math but i this explanation helped <33
2x² - 15x + 7
(2x - 1)(2x-14)
(2x - 1)(x - 7) x= 1/2 or 7
1.20 - .90 = .30
.30 / 5 = .06 (Same as 30 / 5)
The price of a pound of oranges went up by 6 cents per year.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If x - 1 is a factor of the cubic, then 1 should result in 0 when you put it in the cubic for x. Does it?
f(1) = 2(1)^3 - 15(1)^2 + 22(1) + 15
f(1) = 2 - 15 + 22 + 15
f(1)= 24.
No the result is not zero. So x - 1 is not a factor.
However there must be something that makes this cubic go to zero. The easiest way to find it is to graph it.
The numbers that do make this zero are -0.5, 3, 5
Which mean that the factors are (2x+1)(x-3)(x - 5)
