A. (x – 1)(x – 15)
B. (x – 3)(x + 5)
C. (x – 3)(x – 5)
D. (x – 1)(x + 15)

Answers

Answer 1
x^2- 8 x+15=0
x^2-5x- 3x +15=0
x(x-5) -3 (x-5)
(x-5)(x-3)

Answer 2

To factor x^2 -8x + 15, we find two numbers that multiply to get 15 and add to get -8. These two numbers can be -5 and -3. Therefore, this factors as

x^2 - 8x + 15 = (x-5)(x-3)

3x-3= -18

Answers

Alright! So the first step to solving 3x-3=-18 is isolating the variable. In other words, you want to make sure x is all by itself on one side of the equal sign.

3x-3=-18
   +3   +3  Remember: What you do to one side, you have to do to the other.
3x = -15

Now divide by the coefficient (the number in front of x).

(3x)/3 = (-15)/3
x = -5

The solution of the  equation 3x-3= -18 is  -5.

The  algebraic expressions which are separated by an equal symbol  in between them and with the same value is called is an equation

Example = 5x + 5 = 12

here, x is a variable and 5 and 12 are constants.

Given equation;

3x-3= -18

To find the value of x add 3 to both side, we get

3x = -18 +3

we get

3x = -15

divide both side by 3 we get

[tex]x = \dfrac{-15}{3}[/tex]

Convert in into the lowest form we get,

x = -5

The solution of the  equation 3x-3= -18 is  -5

What is linear equation?

Each term in a linear equation has an exponent of 1, and when this algebraic equation is graphed, it always produces a straight line. It is called a "linear equation" for this reason.

Both linear equations with one variable and those with two variables exist.

Given equation -9x(5 - 2x)

Which pair of points forms a vertical line segment that is 4 units long?

Answers

In a Cartesian coordinate system, a vertical line segment always is parallel to the y-axis, so we have this coordinate system in the figure below. We need to find a pair of points that is 4 units long.

So, this pair of points are in the general forms as follow:

[tex]P_{1}( x_{1}, y_{1})[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}( x_{2}, y_{2})[/tex]

Given that the straight line is vertical, then:

[tex]x_{1}=x_{2}[/tex]
 
Then the point 2 is modified as:

[tex]P_{2}( x_{1}, y_{2})[/tex]

We need to find a point which is 4 units long, so:

[tex]d = y_{2} - y_{1} = 4[/tex]
∴ [tex]y_{2} = 4+ y_{1}[/tex]

So, we can find infinite points given a value of [tex]y_{1}[/tex], therefore if:

[tex]y_{1} = 2[/tex] then:

∴ [tex]y_{2} = 6[/tex]

Thus, if [tex] x_{1} = 1 [/tex] then a pair of points are:

[tex]P_{1}(1,2)[/tex]

The probability that the first ball is red is 5/8. There is one black ball, and 16 altogether.

A metal washer is made by cutting out a circle 13.2 mm in diameter from a larger circle. To the nearest tenth, what is the area of the washer?

547.1 mm2
972.6 mm2
60.8 mm2
243.3 mm2

Answers

Answer: [tex]243.3\ mm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The diameter of smaller circle = 13.2 mm

Then the radius of smaller circle r =[tex]\frac{13.2}{2}=6.6\ mm[/tex]

Also, the radius of larger circle R= [tex]6.6+4.4=11.0\ mm[/tex]

Now, the area of the washer is given by :-

[tex]\text{Area of washer=Area of larger circle-Area of smaller circle}\\\\\Rightarrow\\text{Area of washer}=\pi R^2-\p r^2\\\\\Rightarrow\\text{Area of washer}=\pi(R^2-r^2)\\\\\Rightarrow\\text{Area of washer}=(3.14159265359)((11.0)^2-(6.6)^2)\\\\\Rightarrow\\text{Area of washer}=243.284935094\approx243.3\ mm^2[/tex]

Final answer:

The area of the washer is 0 mm2.

Explanation:

To find the area of the washer, we first need to find the area of the larger circle and the area of the smaller circle. The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2.

The larger circle has a diameter of 13.2 mm, so the radius is half of that, which is 6.6 mm. Plugging this value into the formula, the area of the larger circle is approximately 136.78 mm2.

The smaller circle has a diameter of 13.2 mm, so the radius is again 6.6 mm. Using the same formula, the area of the smaller circle is also approximately 136.78 mm2.

To find the area of the washer, we subtract the area of the smaller circle from the area of the larger circle: 136.78 mm2 - 136.78 mm2 = 0 mm2. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the area of the washer is 0 mm2.

Which series has a sum of 5?

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is S=a1/1-r

The series third has a sum of 5 option (C) is correct because the sequence represents the sum of the infinite terms.

What is a sequence?

It is defined as the systematic way of representing the data that follows a certain rule of arithmetic.

We have a series shown in the picture.

The geometric sequence is shown in the options.

As we know, in the geometric sequence there is a first term and common difference

In the first sequence:

First term a = 2

Common difference = 2(0.1)/2

Common difference d = 0.1

The sum of the infinite series is:

S = a/(1 - r)

S = 2/(1 - 0.1)

S = 2.22

In the second sequence:

First term a = 15

Common difference = 15(0.3)/15

Common difference d = 0.3

The sum of the infinite series is:

S = a/(1 - r)

S = 15/(1 - 0.3)

S = 21.42

In the third sequence:

First term a = 4

Common difference = 4(0.2)/4

Common difference d = 0.2

The sum of the infinite series is:

S = a/(1 - r)

S = 4/(1 - 0.2)

S = 5

Thus, the series third has a sum of 5 option (C) is correct because the sequence represents the sum of the infinite terms.

Anna and Ryelin together have 895 songs downloaded. Ryelin has 177 more songs downloaded than Anna. How many songs do each of them have?

Answers

Let,
x = number of songs downloaded by Anna
y = number of songs downloaded by Ryelin

Then,
x + y = 895 ----- (1)

But, it is also indicated that,
y = x+177

Substituting for y in (1);
x+(x+177) = 895
2x + 177 = 895
2x = 895-177 = 718
x = 718/2 = 359 songs
y = x+177 = 359+177 = 536 songs

∴ Songs downloaded by Anna = 359 songs
   Songs downloaded by Ryelin = 536 songs

How do you complete the square of x^2-14x+33=0?

Answers

x² - 14x + 33 = 0 is in the form ax² + bx + c = 0. We will need this for the second step.

Subtract 33 from both sides
x² - 14x = - 33

Divide the b term by 2 and then square the result. Then add that to both sides.
- 14 / 2 is - 7. (- 7)² = 49. Add that to both sides

x² - 14x + 49 = - 33 + 49

Combine the constants and factor the trinomial
(x - 7)² = 16

Square root both sides
x - 7 = +/- 4
or
x - 7 = - 4 and x - 7 = 4

You have to place a plus-minus statement because (- 4)² and 4² both equal 16. 

Now we solve for x in each equation. Add 7 to both sides to isolate our variable.
x = 3 and x = 11

Final answer:

To complete the square for the equation x^2-14x+33=0, the constant 33 is moved to the other side, and the number needed to make the left side a perfect square trinomial, 49, is added to both sides, resulting in factoring and solving (x - 7)^2 = 16 to find x = 11 and x = 3.

Explanation:

To complete the square for the equation x^2-14x+33=0, you need to form a perfect square trinomial on the left side of the equation. First, you'll move the constant term to the right side:

x^2 - 14x = -33

Next, find the value that completes the square for the x-terms. This value is obtained by taking half of the coefficient of x (which is -14 in this case) and squaring it, giving us (-7)^2 = 49.

Add 49 to both sides of the equation:

x^2 - 14x + 49 = -33 + 49

x^2 - 14x + 49 = 16

Now, the left side of the equation is a perfect square trinomial, and can be factored into:

(x - 7)^2 = 16

To solve for x, take the square root of both sides:

x - 7 = [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex]

x - 7 = +- 4

Finally, solve for x by adding 7 to both sides:

x = 7 +- 4

x = 11 or x = 3
