First you have to put like terms together:
bf+af+be+ae
Now you factor the first two terms and then the two last terms:
f(b+a)+e(b+a)
Now you factor even further. By putting what is in parentheses by what is outside the parentheses:
(b+a)(f+e)
What you got is correct as mine is too. I hope this formula helps for future problems:
ax+bx+ac+bc=x(a+b)+c(a+b)
=(a+b)(x+c)

Answer:
First statement is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we add or subtract a constant to each term in a set: Mean will increase or decrease by the same constant. Standard Deviation will not change.
If we increase or decrease each term in a set by the same percent (multiply all terms by the constant): Mean will increase or decrease by the same percent. Standard Deviation will increase or decrease by the same percent.
For example:
Standard Deviation of a set: {1,1,4} will be the same as that of {5,5,8} as second set is obtained by adding 4 to each term of the first set.
That's because Standard Deviation shows how much variation there is from the mean. And when adding or subtracting a constant to each term we are shifting the mean of the set by this constant (mean will increase or decrease by the same constant) but the variation from the mean remains the same as all terms are also shifted by the same constant.
So according to this rule, statement (1) is sufficient to get new Standard Deviation, it'll be 30% less than the old.. As for statement (2) it's clearly insufficient as knowing mean gives us no help in getting new Standard Deviation.
Answer:
Option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a quadratic equation is defined as
.... (1)
then the quadratic formula is
The given equation is
It can rewritten as
.... (2)
On comparing (1) and (2) we get
Using quadratic formula we get
Therefore, the correct option is B.
