Which is the completely factored form of 3xsquared -12x-15?

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

3(x - 5)(x + 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 12x - 15

Dividing through by 3:

= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)

We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:

3(x - 5)(x + 1).

Two-step equations with decimals and fractions Solve for p. −5(p+ 3/5 )=−4

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

1/5 or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(p+3/5)=-4

Let's convert 3/5 to decimal form:

-5(p+0.6)=-4

Expand parentheses:

-5p-3=-4

Add -3 to both sides:

-5p=-1

Divide both sides by -5:

p=1/5 or 0.2

Hope this helps!

Find the ninth partial sum of infinite sumnation 3i-4

snow_tiger [21]

$\bf \sum\limits_{i=1}^9\ 3i-4\implies \sum\limits_{i=1}^9\ 3i-\sum\limits_{i=1}^9\ 4\implies 3\sum\limits_{i=1}^9\ i-\sum\limits_{i=1}^9\ 4
\\\\\\
3\cdot \cfrac{9(9+1)}{2}-(9\cdot 4)$

and surely you know how much that is.
