Solve the following quadratic by factoring.
x² – 3x – 4=0
List the answers separated by a comma. For example, if you found solutions x = 1 and x = 2, you would enter 1, 2.
Answer:
4, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can reverse the FOIL (First, outside, inside, last) method to break down the equation. The question is asking to solve by factoring so you want to find the right combination of numbers this equation can be broken down into:
x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
Because we want x squared, x needs to be multiplied by itself, so we can put x in the first slot for each.
(x + or - ?) ( x + or - ?) = 0
Then we need to find numbers that could be added to get -3 and multiplied to get -4. The only set of numbers that works for this is -4 and 1. Note that the sign you put in front of each number has an impact on your answers. With this we get:
(x - 4) (x + 1) = 0
To test that this is equal to the original equation, simply multiply it out using FOIL.
x * x = x^2
x * 1 = x
x * -4 = -4x
-4 * 1 = -4
Putting each component into an equation:
x^2 + x - 4x - 4 = 0
Simplifying:
x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
Once we are sure it is still the same equation, we find the solutions. We know 0 multiplied by anything equals 0, so to get 0 as the answer, one of the sets in the parentheses must equal 0. (It doesn't matter what the other one is as long is one equals 0)
Therefore, we have 2 solutions, 4, and -1 because if x is 4, 4-4 is 0 which solves the equation, and if x is -1, then -1 + 1 is 0 which also solves the equation.
You can also check your answers by plugging them back into the original equation.

9514 1404 393
Answer:
(s, t) = (2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can eliminate the t variable by subtracting the first equation from half the second.
(1/2)(8s +8t) -(3s +4t) = (1/2)(48) -(22)
s = 2
3(2) +4t = 22
4t = 16
t = 4
The solution is (s, t) = (2, 4).

16. Risa wants to order business cards. A print-
ing company determines the cost (C) to
the customer using the following function,
where b the number of boxes of cards and
n= the number of ink colors.
C= $25.60b + $14.00b(n - 1)
If Risa orders 4 boxes of cards printed in 3
colors, how much will the cards cost?
OA. $214.40
OB. $168.00
C. $144.40
OD. $102.40
Answer:
A - $214.40
Step-by-step explanation:
Since b is the number of boxes of cards and n is the number of ink colors, and we're given the number of boxes of cards, and number of ink colors, we plug in:
4= b
and
3 = n
into the given equation to solve for C.
Using the order of operations we start inside our parentheses and work from there:
C= $25.60*4 + $14.00*4(3 - 1)
C= $25.60*4 + $14.00*4(2)
C= $102.40 + $112
C= $214.40

3m=45
m=15
Check:
3(15-4)=33
3(11)=33

Hope This Helps!!!
Answer:
m = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ( m - 4 ) = 33
Solve for m
3 ( m - 4 ) = 33
Divide both side by 3
[tex]\small \sf \frac{3(m-4)}{3} = \frac{33}{3} \\ [/tex]
m - 4 = 11

the area of triangle
11 George will cover part of a floor with tiles.
The part of the floor is in the shape of a triangle as shown.
305 cm
371.5 cm
George buys tiles in packs.
Each pack covers 1 m2 and costs £39.95
The tiles can be cut and joined.
George gets off the cost of the packs of tiles.
Work out the lowest cost of the tiles for George.
Answer:
484ed+36_67'ten 355+(36)8wwhThe lowest cost of the tiles for George, for coring the considered triangular floor with the tiles of rate £39.95 per meter sq. is £226.3 approximately.
How can we interpret measurement of something?Remember that volume, area, length etc all are measured relatively.
If you are 1.7 meters tall, then you're height is measured relative to meters. This is called unit of the measurement. It means that if we collect 1 meter and 0.7 meters too,they together will be equally tall as you.
Similarly, if we say that a triangle has area of 40 square inches, then it means that its area is equal to 40 squares of 1 inch sides.
In the same way, volume is measured usually relative to unit cubes. Like how many unit cubes (cubes with 1 unit length of their sides) can be fitted (without any overlap or gap, but can be sliced to make them fit inside) inside the considered shape.
For this case, the tiles we will use will have the same area as the area of the triangular floor.
The triangular floor is of height and base of size 305 cm and 371.5 cm
Since the price rate of tiles is in meter sq, so it would be better if we convert the legths specified in meters.
100 cm = 1 m
1 cm = 1/100 m
305 cm = 305/100 = 3.05 m
371.5 cm = 3.715 m
The area of a triangle is half of the product of its base and height.
Thus, we get:
Area of tiles that will be used = area of the considered triangular floor =
[tex]\dfrac{3.05 \times 3.715}{2} \approx 5.665 \: \rm m^2[/tex]
Since 1 sq. m cost £39.95, therefore, 5.665 sq. meters will cost [tex]5.665 \times 39.95 \approx 226.3 \: \rm euros[/tex]
Thus, the lowest cost of the tiles for George, for coring the considered triangular floor with the tiles of rate £39.95 per meter sq. is £226.3 approximately.

The University of Montana ski team has thirteen entrants in a men's downhill ski event. The coach would like the first, second, and third places to go to the team members. In how many ways can the thirteen team entrants achieve first, second, and third places
Answer:
1716 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Number of entrants = 13
The number of ways of attaining first, second and third position :
The number of ways of attaining first ; only 1 person can be first ;
Using permutation :
nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!
13P1 = 13! ÷ 12! = 13
Second position :
We have 12 entrants left :
nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!
12P1 = 12! ÷ 11! = 12
Third position :
We have 11 entrants left :
nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!
11P1 = 11! ÷ 10! = 11
Hence, Number of ways = (13 * 12 * 11) = 1716 ways

Problem 6)
We want to determine the equation of the graphed inequality.
First, let's determine the equation of the line for the inequality. We can see that it passes through the points (-2, 0) and (0, 2). Find the slope:
[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{2-0}{0-(-2)}=\frac{2}{2}=1[/tex]
So, the slope of the line is one.
And since it passes through the point (0, 2), our y-intercept is two. Therefore, the equation of the line is:
[tex]y=x+2[/tex]
Next, notice that the shaded region is below the line. Also, the line itself is also shaded.
Since the shaded region is below the line, y is less than the graph of the line and since the line itself is shaded, our sign is less than or equal to.
Hence:
[tex]y \leq x + 2[/tex]
Our answer is C.
Problem 7)
We have the inequality:
[tex]-2x+8+5x>2x+1[/tex]
First, solve the inequality. Combine like terms:
[tex]3x+8>2x+1[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides:
[tex]x+8>1[/tex]
And subtract 8 from both sides:
[tex]x>-7[/tex]
Therefore, any value greater than -7 will satisfy the inequality.
Out of the choices, the only choice greater than -7 is -5.
So, our answer is D.
Problem 8)
We have the inequality:
[tex]5x+7\leq 8x-3+2x[/tex]
Again, solve the inequality. Combine like terms:
[tex]5x+7\leq 10x-3[/tex]
Subtract 5x from both sides:
[tex]7\leq 5x-3[/tex]
And add three to both sides:
[tex]10\leq 5x[/tex]
Divide both sides by five:
[tex]2\leq x[/tex]
Flip:
[tex]x\geq 2[/tex]
Therfore, any value greater than or equal to 2 will satisfy the inequality.
Out of the choices, the only choice greater than or equal to 2 is 2.
So, our answer is D.

Night students :
n1 =30 x1= 3.34 s1 = 0.02
Day students:
n2 = 30 x2 = 3.32 s2 = 0.08
The test statistic :
(x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)
T= (3.34 - 3.32) / √(0.02²/30) + (0.08²/30)
T = 0.02 / 0.0150554
Test statistic = 1.328
Using the conservative approach ;
df = Smaller of n1 - 1 or n2 - 1
df = 30 - 1 = 29
Pvalue(1.328, 29) = 0.097
At α = 0.10
Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 ; and conclude that there is significant evidence that GPA of night student is greater than GPA of day student

Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. The statement that are correct are x=35, y = 55, and z =90.
What are Similar Figures?Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. It is denoted by the symbol "~".
Given the ΔPQR is similar to ΔSTU, therefore, the statements that are correct about the two triangles are,
∠P = ∠S = x = 35°
∠Q = ∠T = y
∠R = ∠U = z = 55°
Since the sum of all the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. For ΔPQR we can write,
∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180°
°35 + y + 55° = 180°
y = 180° - 55° - 35°
y = 90°
Hence, the statement that are correct are x=35, y = 55, and z =90.
