Answer:  C) Find the factors of c that add up to b.

==============================================

Explanation:

If we want to factor something in the form x^2+bx+c, then we look for two numbers that

  • Multiply to c
  • Add to b

-------------

Let's look at a specific example

Consider factoring x^2+5x+6

We need to find two numbers that...

  • Multiply to c = 6
  • Add to b = 5

Through trial and error, you should find the two numbers to be 3 and 2. This means it factors to (x+3)(x+2). The order of the factors doesn't matter.

You can use the FOIL rule or the box method to expand out (x+3)(x+2). You should get x^2+5x+6 again.

Distance divide time = speed

20 mins divided by 10km = 2km per minute

Which of the following is the most appropriate unit to describe the rate at which people are entering a theme park?
ad-work [718]

The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:

d) People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people

Explanation:

In this situation, the two quantities are people and hours. These are the two things in this problem we can count or measure.

The independent variable is the one that causes a change, while the dependent variable is the one that <em>gets</em> changed. In this situation, the number of people change every hour; this means the number of people <em>gets</em> changed, which makes it the dependent variable. This means that the independent variable must be time.

Since people is dependent and time is independent, "people per hour" would be the best form of this statement.
