It would be C and here's why:
you originally start with 3x² - 14x - 5.  The AC method to factoring says you have to get two middle terms that multiply to whatever 3 × -5 is and have to add to -14. Well 3 × -5 is -15. Raul chose two middle terms of 15x and -1x and 15 × -1 is -15 so that part is correct. However 15 - 1 = 14. The middle term of our original trinomial is -14 so "<span>The two middle coefficients multiply to the correct number, but do not add to the correct number."</span>

Find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse with equation x squared divided by 400 plus y squared divided by 625 = 1
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

x^2/400 + x^2/625

(x-0)^2/400) +(y-0^2/625)

x^2=400

X=sqrt. 400

x = 20

y^2=625

y = sqrt. 625

y= 25

a^2-c^2=b^2

sqrt 400-625 = c

20-25=c

The correct answer is c=-5

(-5,0)

(5,0)

Help pleaseeeeee!

Answer:

Horizontal shift of 1 unit to the right, a vertical shift upward of 6 units, and a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 ..

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is:

3[|x-1|+2]

Can also be written as:

3|x-1|+6

As we can see that the -1 is grouped with x which means it is a horizontal shift of 1 unit to the right.

Now, 6 is added to the function and it is not grouped with x which means that there is a vertical shift of 6 units upward.

Lastly, 3 is multiplied with the term containing x which means that there is a vertical stretch of 3 units.

Hence, the correct option is:

Horizontal shift of 1 unit to the right, a vertical shift upward of 6 units, and a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 ..
