Five swimmers are entered into the competition. Four of the swimmers have had their turns. Their scores are 9.8s, 9.75s, 9.79s, and 9.81s. What score must the last swimmer get in order to win the competition?

Answer:

The answer is B --> [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{3x^{2} -1}[/tex]

How I got that:

These are really easy, you're simply looking for numbers that you can factor down. Like here:

I took:

[tex]\frac{4x^{2} }{12x^{2} -4}[/tex]

and saw that I could factor out 4 from the denominator:

[tex]\frac{4x^{2} }{4(3x^{2} -1)}[/tex]

and then I canceled out the common factor (4 because its on both sides):

[tex]\frac{x^{2} }{3x^{2} -1}[/tex]

And there ya go!

Answer: It's B

           12x2 - 4

  12x2 - 4  =   4 • (3x2 - 1)

Answer: Factoring is essentially the reverse of the distributive property. You are basically trying to simplify the polynomial by taking out common factors. You also may try reducing the power (or the highest exponent) of the polynomial with factoring. I would say that factoring is the breaking down of a bigger polynomial into a product of two expressions that are usually multiplied by each other. One specific use of factoring we see a lot is the quadratic formula.

1. Quadratic Factoring --> [tex]x^2+2x-15[/tex] --> we have an [tex]x^2[/tex] but we want there to only be "[tex]x[/tex]"s. Here we need to constant numbers (integers), that multiply together to get [tex]-15[/tex], and add up to [tex]+2[/tex]. (5 and -3)

    - [tex]x^2+2x-15[/tex] ==> [tex]x^2+5x-3x-15[/tex] ==> [tex]x(x+5)-3(x+5)[/tex] ==> [tex](x-3)(x+5)[/tex]

Above: We can see that we factor out [tex]x[/tex] from [tex]x^2+5x[/tex] (This shows that we are aiming to break it down to make it easier to evaluate).

Remember: Factoring does not always mean that the polynomial is in a simpler form. There are many situations where factoring is totally unnecessary and complicates the polynomial even more.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------On a separate note: Distributive Property, if you are unsure or not fully sure on what that means, is when you multiply two expressions together to create one expression. Multiple expressions are combining into one.

The pattern in the given series of amount in the account are in the form of

arithmetic and geometric progression.

Reasons:

The given table of values is presented as follows;

[tex]\begin{tabular}{c|c|c|c|}Number of years&1&2&3\\Option 1 (Amount in dollars)&1,100&1,200&1,300\\Option 2 (Amount in dollars)&1,100&1,210&1,331\end{array}\right][/tex]

In Option 1, the amount in dollars for each year has a common difference of d = 100

The first term, a = 1,100

Therefore;

The Option 1 can be represented as an arithmetic progression , A.P. in the

form, tₙ = a + (n - 1)·d as follows;

For the Option 1, we have;

For Option 2, it is possible to find;

1,331 ÷ 1,210 = 1,210 ÷ 1,100 = 1.1

Therefore;

The terms in the Option 2 have a common ratio of r = 1.1

The Option 2 is a geometric progression, G.P.

The first term in Option 2 is a = 1,100

Which gives, the nth term, tₙ = a·r⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

Consider a big number 3,400,000. To convert this number into scientific notation:

Place a decimal by counting the steps to the left until the coefficient of the number is between 1 and 9.

Count the number of steps moved. This will be the power of the base 10.

In this case, the coefficient is 3.4 and the 6 steps are moved.

Multiply the coefficient by 106,

Equation of a straight line:

y = mx + b ------(i)

Step by Step Solution:

Step 1:  

m = 0.125, b = - 3  

y = (1/8)x + (-3)

y = 0.125x - 3

(Graph is attached)

Answer:

Step-By-Step explanation:

Formula for any straight line is

y = mx + c

where m = slope, c = constant

Given: y = -3, m = 1/8

Substitute into formula

(y - intercept occurs when x = 0)

-3 = 1/8(0) + c

-3 = 0 + c

c = -3

y = 1/8x - 3

Answer:

A. Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

This line cannot have a slope of zero or undefined because it's a linear negative line. This line is not positive because it's not heading to the right, it's heading to the left which is the negative side, the slope Rise/Run goes up 1 and left 1, which means the slope for this equation is possibly -1x.

Answer:

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that as x increases, y decreases. Therefore, the change in y over the change in x is negative. The line goes down from left to right.

EG = 12.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since HG = HE = 14 then the triangle is isosceles.

HF is a perpendicular bisector of EG , then

EF = FG = 6.1 , so

EG = EF + FG = 6.1 + 6.1 = 12.2

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle can only be a triangle if the two shortest sides add up to be greater than the longest side.

For example on the first one, the segments 1 2 and 3 will not make a triangle as 1 + 2 = 3 and if the two smallest sides of a triangle are equal to the longest side it will not be a triangle at all.

So to make this easy, out of the three numbers given: add the two smallest numbers. This number has to be greater than the third number given, and it cannot be equal.

For question three: 3+9 = 12

And 12 is greater than 11, therefore this can make a triangle.

plz check weather correct or notn

Answer:

The correct answer is none.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is y = -1/5x + 1

To find the equation of the line, start by finding the slope. You can do this by using the slope formula below.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (2 - -1)/(-5 - 10)

m = 3/-15

m = -1/5

Now that we have the slope, we can use it along with either point in the point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -1/5(x + 5)

y - 2 = -1/5x - 1

y = -1/5x + 1

Answer:

It Should be y= -1/5x + 1 but you have not listed it in your options...

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

The relevant relationships are ...

  discount = (discount rate) × (original price)

  (sale price) = (original price) - discount

__

Putting these into one equation gives ...

  (sale price) = (original price) - (discount rate)×(original price)

Combining terms, yields ...

  (sale price) = (original price)×(1 -(discount rate))

This relation can be solved for either of the variables on the right:

  (original price) = (sale price)/(1 -(discount rate))

  (discount rate) = 1 -(sale price)/(original price)

or ...

  (discount rate) = discount/(original price)

Going back to the beginning, you have ...

  discount = (original price) -(sale price)

__

To solve for the missing amount, you can choose the formula for which you have the other amounts. Or, you can start with any of the relations that relate the amounts you have, fill in the given values, and solve for the unknown.

It's not rocket science. You see these calculations almost every time you go to the store.

_____

Additional comments

Here, we have assumed a positive value for discount rate and discount, and that the sale price is less than the original price. This is basically the set of relations that are seen by a retail buyer.

If you are the seller, the relations you typically see are ...

  (cost price) + (markup) = (selling price)

The markup can be expressed as a percentage of either the cost price or the selling price, or it may be based on some other relation (fixed business costs, for example).

And another one is ...

  (markup)/(cost price) = (profit ratio) . . . . often expressed as a percentage

Sometimes the profit is expressed as a fraction of the selling price (business revenue) instead of the cost price.

__

Taxes are added on in the same way that discounts are subtracted:

  (final selling price) = (selling price) + (tax rate)×(selling price)

or

  (final selling price) = (selling price)×(1 +(tax rate))
