Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The factorization of x² - 5x + 6 can be determined thinking critically about two numbers, that if we multiply those two numbers together it will result into a value of +6 and if we add those numbers together , we will have -5
The numbers are -3 and -2 ; if we multiply -3 and -2 , we have = 6
If we add -3 + (-2) ; we have,
-3-2 = -5
Now the factorization of
x² - 5x + 6 = 0 is as follows.
x² - 3x - 2x + 6
By factorization,
x(x - 3) - 2 (x - 3) = 0
(x - 2) or (x-3) = 0
Now, using An algebra tile configuration. The diagrammatic expression showing how an algebraic tile configuration should looks like can be found in the attached image below.
Hint:
Let represent ,
1 = x² tile
-5 = - x tiles
6 = 1 tiles
Answer:b)0.8577
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the heights of men are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - u)/s
Where
x = heights of men
u = mean height
s = standard deviation
From the information given,
u = 69 inches
s = 2.8 inches
We want to find the probability that the mean height of the 100 men is less than 72 inches.. It is expressed as
P(x < 72)
For x = 72
z = (72 - 69)/2.8 = 1.07
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.8577
P(x < 72) = 0.8577
15u + 11u - 9d - 19d = -2d
It went up 26, down 28, a net change of down 2.
