Factorise the following:
a) x^2 - 5x - 6
b) x^2 + 3x – 40
c) x^2 - 7x - 30

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) (x+6)(x-1)

b) (x+8)(x-5)

c) (x+3)(x-10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The final answer would always have to be two brackets with x and the relevant variables.

x²: You know the possible factors that can be multiplied together would be x and x. Each factor would have to be in different brackets, so we get (x + smth else)(x +smth else)

When factorising quadratic expressions, you need to find the correct pair of factors, that when multiplied together, becomes the constant of the expression. They also need to become the middle term when they are multiplied with the term in the bracket and then added together.

Possible factors for a):

1. 1 × 6 = 6

2. 2 × 3 = 6

You know 1 - 6 = -5, so we shall use the factors 6 and 1.

(x+6)(x-1) = x² -x + 6x - 6

              = x² + 5x - 6

Thus, (x+6)(x-1) is the answer.

Possible factors for b):

1. 1 × 40 = 40

2. 2 × 20 = 40

3. 4 × 10 = 40

4. 5 × 8 = 40

You know 8 - 5 = 3, so we shall use the factors 8 and 5.

(x+8)(x-5) = x² -5x + 8x - 40

               = x² + 3x - 40

Thus, (x+8)(x-5) is the answer.

Possible factors for c):

1. 1 × 30 = 30

2. 2 × 15 = 30

3. 3 × 10 = 30

4. 5 × 6 = 30

You know 3 - 10 = -7, so we shall use the factors 3 and 10.

(x+3)(x-10) = x² -10x + 3x - 30

               = x² - 7x - 40

Thus, (x+3)(x-10) is the answer.

Answer 2

a)

x² - 5x - 6

= x² + x - 6x - 6

= x(x + 1) -6(x + 1)

= (x - 6) (x + 1)

b)

x² + 3x - 40

= x² + 8x - 5x - 40

= x(x + 8) -5(x + 8)

= (x - 5) (x + 8)

c)

x² - 7x - 30

= x² - 10x + 3x - 30

= x(x - 10) + 3(x - 10)

= (x + 3) (x - 10)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

307 divided by 7 is the number of students in each bus with the remainder 6. As the 6 students cannot be fit into the bus and had to travel by car.

Thus we can conclude that:

307= 7x + 6 (6 extra students)

Take away 6 on both sides

7x = 301

x= 43

There are 43 students on each bus.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

316-6=310.

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the number be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A = 2,070,000

Now , to write the number in scientific notation ,

Multiply the number 207 with powers of 10

So , the value of A will be

A = 207 x 10⁴

Now , the number 207 can be written as 2.07 x 10²

On simplifying the equation , we get

A = 2.07 x 10² x 10⁴

A = 2.07 x 10²⁺⁴

A = 2.07 x 10⁶

Therefore , the value of A is 2.07 x 10⁶

Hence , the value of the number is 2.07 x 10⁶

What is a transversal?

We know when a transversal intersects two parallel lines at two distinct points,

Two pairs of interior and alternate angles are formed such that the measure of interior angles are same and the measure of alternate angles is also the same.

We know vertically opposite angles are of equal measure.

∴ m∠2 is 42°.

We know the sum of all the interior angles in a triangle is 180°.

∴ m∠1 = 180° - 50° - 42°.

m∠1 = 88°.

m∠3 = 180° - 42° - 25°.

m∠3 = 113°.

Wil has a coin collection and is currently adding 9 coins per day to his existing number of coins in his collection.After 22 days he has a total of 218 coins. How many coins will he have after 36 days?

Answers

Answer:

344

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of coins added per day in the collection = 9

Number of coins in the collection after 22 days = 218

To find:

Number of coins in the collection after 36 days.

Solution:

First of all, let us find how many coins did he have initially.

Let the number of coins present initially with Wil = [tex]x[/tex]

Number of coins added per day = 9

Number of coins added after 22 days = 22 [tex]\times[/tex] 9 = 198

Therefore,

[tex]x + 198 = 218\\\Rightarrow x = \bold{20}[/tex]

Number of coins present with Wil initially = 20

Number of coins added after 36 days = 36 [tex]\times[/tex] 9 = 324

Total number of coins after 36 days = Number of coins present initially with Will + Number of coins added = 324 + 20 = 344

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x−4.

Subtract 15x from both sides.

Combine 3x and −15x to get −12x.

What is 72 Divided by 2= ??

Answers

Answer:

72 / 2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at 7 first and figure out how many times 2 will go into 7. 2 will only go into 7 three times. (2 x 3= 6) So put 3 at the top of your division problem and subtract 6 from 7. You should get 1. Then, bring down your 2 to make that one a 12. How many times will 2 go into 12? 6 times. 6 x 2 equals 12 so put 6 at the top of your division problem next to that 3. Subtract your 12 from 12 to get 0. Your final answer would be 36.

Hope this helped!

The division of 72 and 2 is 36.

What is the division?
