Factor the trinomial. p2 - 4p - 5
What is the a, b and c?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(p - 5)(p + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p² - 4p - 5

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

The factors are - 5 and + 1 , since

- 5 × + 1 = - 5 and - 5 + 1 = - 4, then

p² - 4p - 5 = (p - 5)(p + 1) ← in factored form

The standard form of a trinomial is

ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

p² - 4p - 5 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = - 4 and c = - 5

The roots of the given quadratic equation 3x² - 3x + 1 are x = [3 + √(-3)]/6 and x = [3 - √(-3)]/6 thus options (A) and (B) are correct.

What is a quadratic equation?

An algebraic equation of the second degree in x is a quadratic equation. The quadratic equation is written as ax2 + bx + c = 0, where x is the variable, and a must not be zero.

As per the given equation,

3x² - 3x + 1

To find the roots of the above quadratic equation,

3x² - 3x + 1 = 0

x = [-(-3) ± √((-3)² - 4×3×1)]/(2×3)

x = [3 ± √(-3)]/6

x = [3 + √(-3)]/6 and x = [3 - √(-3)]/6

Hence "The roots of the given quadratic equation 3x² - 3x + 1 are x = [3 + √(-3)]/6 and x = [3 - √(-3)]/6".

A basket ball player attempts 15 baskets in a game . He makes 9 of the attemps what is the ratio

Answers

Answer:

9:15 or 3:5

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can compare a part of a whole to a whole.

In this case, our whole is the total number of shots attempted: 15.

The basketball player successfully made 9 of the attempts. 9 is our other number in this ratio.

Put these values in a ration.

part:whole

9:15

Notice that 9 and 15 can be simplified by dividing both numbers by 3.

3:5

This is your simplified ratio.

Answer: 1.5 x 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to re-arrange the factors like this :

5 x 3 x 10^2 x 10^2

Since

5 x 3 = 15

and the index law

10^a x 10^b = 10^a + ^b

gives us

10^2 x 10^2 = 10^2 + ^2 = 10^4

then we can rewrite the product like this :

5 x 3 x 10^2 x 10^2 = 15 x 10^4

Finally, we need to convert this into scientific notation :

15 x 10^4 = 1.5 x 10^5  

So the final answer is

1.5 x 10^5

How many kilograms of 30% salt solution by mass and 40% salt solution by mass
should be mixed to form 200 kg of 37% salt solution by mass?

Answers

Answer:

60 kilograms of the 30% solution

140 kilograms of the 40% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the no. of kilos containing 30% salt (solution 1)

and 200 - x = the no. of kilos containging 40% salt solution 2)

.30x = amount of salt in solution 1

.40(200 - x) = amount of salt in solution 2

.37(200) = amount of salt in the final mixture

salt in solution 1 + salt in solution 2 = salt in final mix.

.30x + .40(200 - x) = .37(200)  

Let's multiply thru the equation by 100 to remove the decimal fractions

30x + 40(200 - x) = 37(200)

30x + 8000 - 40x = 7400

-10x = -600

x = 60 kilograms of the 30% solution

200 - 60 = 140 kilograms of the 40% solution

side length of 10
side length of 2
side length of 6
side length of 7

Answers

Answer:

side length of 2

side length of 6

side length of 7

Step-by-step explanation:

So remember the two shorter lengths added together have to be greater than the longest side length

For the first answer choice we add 7 and 8

7+8=15

The two shorter sides added are not greater then the longest side so that is not the answer

For the second answer choice we add

8 and 5

8+5=13

13 is not greater than 14 so this is not the answer choice either

For the third one we add 6 and 3

6+3=9 which is not greater than 10 so this is not the answer

For the last one we add 2 and 6

2+6=8 which is greater than 7 so this one is the answer
