If Leon bought trail mix worth of $ 6.24, and he paid 0.78 per pound,
6.24/0.78= 8 lbs
Add 2p² to each side of the equation. Then you have
2p² + 16p + 24 = 0 .
Before you roll up your sleeves and start working on it, you can make it
even more convenient if you divide each side by 2 . Then you have:
p² + 8p + 12 = 0 .
Now you have a nice, comfortable, familiar-looking quadratic equation.
You can either factor the left side into (p + 6) (p + 2), or, if you can't find
the factors, you can apply the quadratic formula to it.
That's how to solve it, and find its two solutions.
The answer to the missing word on the statement in this problem is an outlier.An outlier is a value that lies outside most of the other values in a set of data. It also means it is much smaller or larger than most of the values in a set.For example, in this given score set {24,29,2,32,88,33,26,28}. The scores 2 and 88 are outliers.
You need two terms that multiply to (12x-4). The term on the outside needs to be a common multiple of 12 and 4. The common factors are 1, 2, and 4. Here are the following possible dimensions:
1(12x-4)
2(6x-2)
4(3x-1)
Hope this helps.
