Factor the equation below.
f(x) = x2 + x - 20

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = (x+5)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Key skills used in this problem: Quadratic equations, factoring

1) The equation x^2 + x - 20 is factorable (meaning it can be facttored easily)

2) We need to find factors of -20 that add up to 1. This is because our ac (a term times the c term) is -20 and our b term (the coefficient for +x) is 1.

3) The two factors would be 5 and -4.

4) So it would be (x + 5)(x - 4) when factored

Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D

Answer 2

Answer:

f(x)= (x+5)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First muliply the coefficient of the xsquared with the constant, in this case 1 × -20 = -20. Then figure out two factors of -20 that equal the coefficient of the stand-alone x when added together. In this case, that coefficient is 1. Factors of -20 that add to 1 are 5 and -4. Now simply take each of those numbers and shove them into parenthesis with an x.

Find a vector 3 units long in the opposite direction from v = 〈3, 1,-4).

Answers

Unit vector along the direction v = <3,1,-4> is :

[tex]\hat{v} = \dfrac{3i + j -4k}{\sqrt{3^2 + 1^2 + 4^2}}\\\\\hat{v} = \dfrac{3i + j -4k}{5.1}[/tex]

So, unit vector opposing the [tex]\hat{v}[/tex] is :

[tex]\hat{v'} = -\hat{v}\\\\\hat{v'} = -( \dfrac{3i + j -4k}{5.1})\\\\\hat{v'} = \dfrac{-3i - j +4k}{5.1}[/tex]

so, vector of magnitude 3 units in opposite direction from v is :

[tex]\vec{V} = 3\hat{v'}\\\\\vec{V} = \dfrac{3}{5.1}( -3i -j+4k)[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Bag A contains 3 red balls and 3 blue balls.
Bag B contains 1 red ball and 3 blue balls.
A ball is taken at random from bag A and placed in bag
B. A ball is then chosen from bag B. What is the probability
that the ball taken from B is red?

Answers

Answer:

30% probability that the ball taken from B is red.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

Red ball from urn A:

3/6 = 1/2 probability of getting a red ball from urn A.

Then urn B will have 5 balls, 2 of which are red, so 2/5 probability of getting a red ball.

Blue ball from urn A:

3/6 = 1/2 probability of getting a blue ball from urn A.

Then urn B will have 5 balls, 1 of which is red, so 1/5 probability of getting a red ball.

Total:

[tex]p = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{5} + \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{10} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}[/tex]

3/10 = 0.3 = 30%.

30% probability that the ball taken from B is red.

A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to
put a markup of 25% on all items. An item costing $16 is displayed by the store manager at a selling price of $4. As an employee, you notice that this selling price is incorrect. Find the correct selling price. What was the manager's likely error?

Can someone help? It would be appreciated! ♡︎

Answers

Answer:

Find out  the selling price.

To prove

As given

A store manager instructs his employees to mark up all the items by 25%. An item that the store bought for $16.

25% is written in the decimal form.

= 0.25

25% of the $16= 0.25 × 16

                         = $4

Selling price of the item = Original price of item + 25% of the $16

                                       = $16 + $4

                                      = $ 20

Therefore the selling price of the item is $20.

-4 = r/20 -5
Solve for r. Show your steps​

Answers

-4 = r/20 - 5

Add 5 to both sides

1 = r/20

Multiple by 20 on both sides

20 = r

Answer:

r = 20

Explanation:

-4 = r/20 - 5

Simplify both sides of the equation

-4 = r/20 - 5

-4 = 1/20r + -5

-4 = 1/20r - 5

Flip the equation

1/20r - 5 = -4

Add 5 to both sides

1/20r - 5 + 5 = -4 + 5

1/20r = 1

Multiply both sides of the equation by 20

(20)1/20r = 1(20)

r = 20

Answers

Answer:

a) miles per gallon, gallons in tank

Step-by-step explanation:

All the options show functional relationship but the first one

a) miles per gallon, gallons in tank

There is no direct relationship between these parameters as miles per gallon depends on the speed and the way of driving. This won't be a function when graphed.

b) length of shadows/time of day

Shadow depends on the time of the day and its length wont repeat at different angles. This is a function.

c) temperature in F, temperature in C

This is a function as each input will have a unique output.

Answer:

Simplified answer is: [tex]8a^2 - ab + 2b + 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Key skills needed for understanding: Combining Like Terms

1) You are given the equation: [tex](3a^{2} + 2ab + 2b) + (5a^{2} - 3ab + 9)[/tex]

- Since you are adding here, you can remove the parentheses.

- If you remove them it would be --> [tex]3a^2 + 2ab + 2b + 5a^2 - 3ab + 9[/tex]

2) Now we have to combine like terms in order to simplify this equation.

Combining like terms is simply combining terms with the same base (such as the terms that have "ab" or the terms that have "[tex]a^2[/tex]" or the terms that have nothing  - these terms are numbers such as 9 or 5).

You can combine 2ab and -3ab, but you cannot combine 9 and 2b. Hope you understood this concept.

3) If you combine like terms ( [tex]3a^2 + 5a^2[/tex], [tex]2ab - 3ab[/tex]) you will get a different expression: [tex]8a^2 - ab + 2b + 9[/tex].

[tex]8a^2 - ab + 2b + 9[/tex] is the answer.

Tommy buys a new stereo that sells for $1052.75 plus taxes. At the time of the

12 monthly payments.
A) What is the total amount to be paid at the time of the purchase?
B) What is the amount of each monthly payment?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A. What is the total amount to be paid at the time of the purchase?

This will be the selling price of the stereo with the tax and the deferral. This will be:

= $1052.75 + $40

= $1092.75

B) What is the amount of each monthly payment?

Each monthly payment will be gotten by dividing the total payment to be made by 12. This will be:

= $1092.75 / 12

= $91.06
