Factor the following polynomial. 2x^3– 10x^2 – 12x enter the gcf of the polynomial.

The equation has 2 and x in common. This means you can factor both the 2 and x out of the equation like so...

2x()

Hope this helped!

2x(x - 6)(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x³ - 10x² - 12x ← factor out 2x from each term

= 2x(x² - 5x - 6)

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 6 and + 1, since

- 6 × 1 = - 6 and - 6 + 1 = - 5, thus

x² - 5x - 6 = (x - 6)(x + 1) and

2x³ - 10x² - 12x = 2x(x - 6)(x + 1) ← in factored form

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
