test/681999: X^2-7x+12 1 solutions Answer 422941 by jim_thompson5910(28476)   on 2012-11-17 17:53:24 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Looking at the expression , we can see that the first coefficient is , the second coefficient is , and the last term is . Now multiply the first coefficient by the last term to get . Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to (the previous product) and add to the second coefficient ? To find these two numbers, we need to list all of the factors of (the previous product). Factors of : 1,2,3,4,6,12 -1,-2,-3,-4,-6,-12 Note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations. These factors pair up and multiply to . 1*12 = 12 2*6 = 12 3*4 = 12 (-1)*(-12) = 12 (-2)*(-6) = 12 (-3)*(-4) = 12 Now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient : First Number Second Number Sum 1 12 1+12=13 2 6 2+6=8 3 4 3+4=7 -1 -12 -1+(-12)=-13 -2 -6 -2+(-6)=-8 -3 -4 -3+(-4)=-7 From the table, we can see that the two numbers and add to (the middle coefficient). So the two numbers and both multiply to and add to Now replace the middle term with . Remember, and add to . So this shows us that . Replace the second term with . Group the terms into two pairs. Factor out the GCF from the first group. Factor out from the second group. The goal of this step is to make the terms in the second parenthesis equal to the terms in the first parenthesis. Combine like terms. Or factor out the common term =============================================================== Answer: So factors to . In other words, . Note: you can check the answer by expanding to get or by graphing the original expression and the answer (the two graphs should be identical).

Looking at we can see that the equation is in slope-intercept form where the slope is and the y-intercept is Since this tells us that the y-intercept is .Remember the y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects with the y-axis So we have one point Now since the slope is comprised of the "rise" over the "run" this means Also, because the slope is , this means: which shows us that the rise is 3 and the run is 2. This means that to go from point to point, we can go up 3 and over 2 So starting at , go up 3 units and to the right 2 units to get to the next point Now draw a line through these points to graph So this is the graph of through the points and

Quadratic_Equations/681794: Help explain why this expression cannot be factored 40a^2+21a-2 1 solutions Answer 422798 by jim_thompson5910(28476)   on 2012-11-16 21:09:56 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Looking at the expression , we can see that the first coefficient is , the second coefficient is , and the last term is . Now multiply the first coefficient by the last term to get . Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to (the previous product) and add to the second coefficient ? To find these two numbers, we need to list all of the factors of (the previous product). Factors of : 1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,40,80 -1,-2,-4,-5,-8,-10,-16,-20,-40,-80 Note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations. These factors pair up and multiply to . 1*(-80) = -80 2*(-40) = -80 4*(-20) = -80 5*(-16) = -80 8*(-10) = -80 (-1)*(80) = -80 (-2)*(40) = -80 (-4)*(20) = -80 (-5)*(16) = -80 (-8)*(10) = -80 Now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient : First Number Second Number Sum 1 -80 1+(-80)=-79 2 -40 2+(-40)=-38 4 -20 4+(-20)=-16 5 -16 5+(-16)=-11 8 -10 8+(-10)=-2 -1 80 -1+80=79 -2 40 -2+40=38 -4 20 -4+20=16 -5 16 -5+16=11 -8 10 -8+10=2 From the table, we can see that there are no pairs of numbers which add to . So cannot be factored. =============================================================== Answer: So doesn't factor at all (over the rational numbers). So is prime.

Miscellaneous_Word_Problems/681787: what is the formula to add 40% to any given amount of money, say, add 40% to $67.50. and visa versa whats the formula to subtract 40% of any given amount of money. Thank you, wendears@yahoo.com really! 1 solutions Answer 422796 by jim_thompson5910(28476)   on 2012-11-16 21:09:10 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Take 40% of 67.50 to get 0.4*67.50 = 27 So 40% of $67.50 is $27. Add this to the original amount ($67.50) to get 67.50 + 27 = 94.50 ======================================================= Doing it in general If you want to add 40% to any amount, call it x dollars, then take 40% of x to get 0.4x Then add it to the original amount x to get x + 0.4x You can combine like terms to get 1.4x Notice how 1.4 times 67.50 gives you the same answer as before.

Quadratic-relations-and-conic-sections/681672: need to understand how to get center and radius and then graph this equation? x squared + y squared=1 1 solutions Answer 422734 by jim_thompson5910(28476)   on 2012-11-16 14:56:03 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! x^2 + y^2 = 1 can be rewritten as (x-0)^2 + (y-0)^2 = 1^2 and that is in the form (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, which is a circle with radius r and center (h,k) Since h = 0, k = 0 and r = 1, the center of x^2 + y^2 = 1 is (0,0) and it has a radius of 1 unit. This is a special circle known as the unit circle (which you'll use a lot in trigonometry). The graph looks like this

Trigonometry-basics/681671: Is sinA > cosA always? why and how? 1 solutions Answer 422732 by jim_thompson5910(28476)   on 2012-11-16 14:54:14 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! no, if A = 0, then sin(A) > cos(A) sin(0) > cos(0) 0 > 1 which is FALSE So sin(A) > cos(A) is not always true.
