Step-by-step Answer:

There is a total of 10 coins, 5 dimes, 2 quarters and three pennies.

By picking a coin, it could be any that shows up out of the 10, so the probability of picking any coin in particular is 1 / 10.

If there are 5 dimes, the probability of picking ANY one particular dime is 1/10, so with 5, the probability of picking ANY of the five dimes is 5/10 = 1/2.

Going along the same line of thought, the probability of picking any of quarters and pennies would be 2/10+3/10 = 5/10 = 1/2 as well.

Factor each polynomial. Look for a GCF first

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

20. $x\left(x-6\right)\left(x+8\right)$

22. $2\left(x+1\right)\left(x+4\right)$

24. $5m\left(m-1\right)\left(m+7\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

20. $x^3+2x^{2} -48x$

The GCF is x, so you group it out of the equation first.

$x(x^{2} +2x-48)$

Then, you find 2 numbers that will equal to 2 when you add them and will equal to -48 when you multiply them.

$?+?=2\\?*?=-48$

The two numbers would be -6 and 8. You then differentiate the squares.

$x\left(x-6\right)\left(x+8\right)$

22. $2x^{2} +10x+8$

The GCF is 2, so you must group it out.

$2(x^{2} +5x+4)$

Find the two numbers that will equal to 5 when you add them and will equal to 4 when you multiply them.

$?+?=5\\?*?=4$

The two numbers would be 1 and 4. Finally, differentiate the squares.

$2\left(x+1\right)\left(x+4\right)$

24. $5m^{3} +30m^2-35m$

The GCF is 5m, so you must group it out.

$5m(m^2+6m-7)$

Find the two numbers that will equal to 6 when you add them and will equal to -7 when you multiply them.

$?+?=6\\?*?=-7$

The two numbers would be -1 and 7. Finally, differentiate the squares.

$5m\left(m-1\right)\left(m+7\right)$

What are the coordinates of each point after quadrilateral ABCD is reflected across the y-axis and then translated 2 units down?

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

$A" =(-1,-1)$ $B" =(-2,1)$

$C" =(-4,1)$ $D" =(-5,-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (1,1)$ $B =(2,3)$

$C = (4,3)$ $D = (5,1)$

Required

The new coordinates after reflected across y-axis and shifted 2 units down

When a point is reflected across the y-axis, the rule is:

$(x,y)=>(-x,y)$

So:

$A = (1,1)$ $=> A' = (-1,1)$

$B =(2,3)$ $=> B' = (-2,3)$

$C = (4,3)$ $=> C' = (-4,3)$

$D = (5,1)$ $=> D' = (-5,1)$

When a point is translated 2 units down, the rule is:

$(x,y) => (x,y-2)$

So:

$A = (1,1)$ $=> A' = (-1,1)$ $=> A" =(-1,-1)$

$B =(2,3)$ $=> B' = (-2,3)$ $=> B" =(-2,1)$

$C = (4,3)$ $=> C' = (-4,3)$ $=> C" =(-4,1)$

$D = (5,1)$ $=> D' = (-5,1)$ $=> D" =(-5,-1)$

So, the new coordinates are:

$A" =(-1,-1)$ $B" =(-2,1)$

$C" =(-4,1)$ $D" =(-5,-1)$
