Answer: x = -2/3 , 1
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1 (hardest step!) factor by grouping:
(3x + 2)(x-1) = 0
the rest is easy:
3x + 2 = 0 or (x-1) = 0
Solve each for x:
3x + 2 = 0
x = -2/3
x-1 = 0
x = 1
So your 2 solutions for x are -2/3 and 1

What is SAS(Side -Angle-Side) triangle?
"SAS" is when we know two sides and the angle between them.
To solve an SAS triangle we use "The Law of Cosines" to calculate the unknown side.
The Law of Cosines = a² = b² + c² − 2bc cosA
where
'b' and 'c' are two given sides
'A' is the angle between side 'b' and 'c' and
a' is the unknown side which we have to find.
In ΔABC , b=21, c=20, a= AC
By the Cosine law
a² = 21²+20² - 2*21*20 cos90°
a² =441 + 400 - 0 (∵cos 90° =0)
a² = 841
a=√841
a=29= AC.
Now, in ΔCDE, b=8, c=15 and a = CE
By the Cosine law
a² = 8² + 15²- 2*8*15cos90°
a² = 64 + 225 - 0 (∵cos 90° =0)
a²= 289
a = 17 = CE.
AE = AC + CE
AE = 29+17= 46.
Therefore, the total segment AE is 46.

What is a triangle?It is a two-dimensional figure which has three sides and the sum of the three angles is equal to 180 degrees.
We have,
In this triangle:
angle W = (3x-24) degrees.
angle C = (4x-11) degrees.

well, we know the first $25,000 is taxed at 8%, wait a second!!!!! Chris didn't make 25,000 bucks, he only made $17,000, so he'd be in the range of $0 - $25,000 because $17,000 is in that range, that means he owes 8% of 17,000

The amount Chris owes in tax is $1360.
What is a percentage?The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.
Example:
Required percentage value = a
total value = b
Percentage = a/b x 100
Example:
50% = 50/100 = 1/2
25% = 25/100 = 1/4
20% = 20/100 = 1/5
10% = 10/100 = 1/10
We have,
The first $25,000 is taxed at 8%.
This means,
Amount from 0 to $25000 is taxed at 8%.
Now,
Chris earned = $17,000
Tax amount.
= 8% of 17,000

It will take 300 days to get to 2000 dollars.
According to the question,
We have the following information:
One gets paid every 12 days and one puts back $80 every 12 days.
Now, the total amount of dollars is $2000.
Now, we have the following progression:
80, 160, 240, ...
This is an arithmetic progression.
an = a+(n-1)d where a is the first term and d is the common difference
2000 = 80+(n-1)80
2000 = 80+80n-80
2000 = 80n
n = 2000/80
n = 25
Now, the number of days one is paid is after 12 days.

A statistician proposed a new method for constructing a 90 percent confidence interval to estimate the median of assessed home values for homes in a large community. To test the method, the statistician will conduct a simulation by selecting 10,000 random samples of the same size from the population. For each sample, a confidence interval will be constructed using the new method. If the confidence level associated with the new method is actually 90 percent, which of the following will be captured by approximately 9000 of the confidence intervals constructed from the simulation?
(A) The Sample Mean
(B) The Sample Median
(C) The Sample Standard Division
(D) The Population mean
(E) The Population Median
The measure that will be captured by approximately 9000 of the confidence intervals is given as follows:
(E) The Population Median.
What is the interpretation of a x% confidence interval?The interpretation of a x% confidence interval is that it is x% likely that the population parameter(mean/proportion/standard deviation/median) is between a and b, which are the bounds of the confidence interval.
The bounds of the confidence interval are obtained by the estimate plus/minus the margin of error.
The measure for which the confidence intervals are calculated in this problem is given by:
Median.
The sample median for each sample is used for the estimes, and then these estimates are inferred for the population median, which is the population parameter, hence option e is correct.

0.05(n) + 0.10(2n) = 0.75
0.05n + 0.20n = 0.75
0.25n = 0.75
Divide
n = 0.75/0.25
n = 3

In the question ,
If the sample size is increased ,
that is if the number of sample is increased then the errors in the sampling distribution becomes less .
and if the sample size is decreased then it will lead to the increase in the errors of the distribution .
The formula for relationship between variation and sample size is given as ,
σx = σ / sqrt (n)
we can see that variation and sample size are inversely proportional .

A cereal company packs cereal boxes into large cardboard boxes. The large boxes are 12 inches long and 8 inches wide.
Volume of box = 3456 cubic inches
We know that the box is in the shape of cuboid.
Following formula is used to find the volume of cuboid:
Volume = length*width*height
12*8*height = 3456
96*height = 3456
Dividing both sides by 96:
Height = 3456/96
Height of the box = 36 inches

It is given to us that -
The point is P(-8,0)
The line is represented as y=-3
The point P is perpendicular to the given line.
We have to find out the equation of the line passing through P which is perpendicular to the given line.
We know that the equation of a line is given by -
y = mx + c
where, (x, y) = coordinates of the point
m = slope of the line
c = a constant
Comparing this with the equation of the given line, we have
m=0 and c =-3
This implies that the slope of the perpendicular is also equal to 0.
The slope intercept formula for the perpendicular line can be represented as -
y = mx + c
Using the coordinates of P(-8,0), we have
