50 POINTS!! PLS PLS HELP ME What method would you call this (Factor the polynomial 6x^2-x-2)
I got this answer by first breaking the expression into groups [(6x^2+3x)+(-4x-2)] and then I factor out the 3x from the 6x^2+3x which then that becomes 3x(2x+1). Then I factor out -2 from-4x-2 which becomes -2(2x+1) and then so far we have 3x(2x+1)-2(2x+1) and then we factor out the common term 2x+1 and then we have (2x+1)(3x-2) as our answer.

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry.how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.

Is the ordered pair (-10, 7) a solution to the equation y = 17 – x? yes or no

If p(x) is the total value of the production when there are x workers in a plant, then the average productivity of the workforce at the plant is a(x) = p(x) x . (a) find a'(x). a'(x) = xp'(x) − p(x) x a'(x) = xp'(x) − p(x) x2 a'(x) = p'(x) − p(x) x a'(x) = xp'(x) − p'(x) x2 a'(x) = p'(x) − xp(x) x2 why does the company want to hire more workers if a'(x) > 0? a'(x) > 0 ⇒ a(x) is ; that is, the average productivity as the size of the workforce increases. (b) if p'(x) is greater than the average productivity, which of the following must be true? p'(x) − xp(x) > 0 p'(x) − xp(x) < 0 xp'(x) − p'(x) > 0 xp'(x) − p(x) < 0 xp'(x) − p(x) > 0
