Simplify a^2-3a2 a^3-8a^2+12a to lowest terms

Mathematics
1 answer:
inn [45]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\frac{a-3}{(a-2)(a-6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2}-3a has the common multiple of a. If you factor it out, you get a(a-3).

a^3-8a^2+12a also has a common multiple of a. Once factored, you get a(a^2-8a+12). This equation can be further factored to get (a-2)(a-6).

Put these two expressions over one another and you get  \frac{a-3}{(a-2)(a-6)}.

Write the equation of the line fully simplified slope-intercept form.
inessss [21]
Pick any two points
(0, 3), (-1,9)
Find slope (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(9-3)/(-1-0) = 6/-1 = -6
Y = -6x + b
Plug in a point
3 = 0 + b, b= 3
Final equation: y = -6x + 3

Two isosceles triangles have the same base length. the legs of one of the triangles are twice as long as the legs of the other.
Makovka662 [10]
An isosceles triangle is a type of triangle where 2 sides are equal.

Picture out 2 triangles with the same base length. 
On the first triangle, its legs are twice the length of the legs of the second triangle.

To put it into variables, let:
     B = the same base length of the two triangles
     A = the length of one leg the smaller triangle
    2A = the length of one leg of the bigger triangle

Given:    Perimeter of smaller triangle = 23cm
              Perimeter of bigger triangle = 43cm

Recall the formula for solving the perimeter of a triangle:
      Perimeter = A + B + C
   
where, A, B, and C are the legs of the triangle

Since the triangle involved is an isosceles triangle, therefore, we can say that
        Perimeter = 2A + B     ,   2 legs are equal ( A=C )

Substituting the given perimeter value to the formula. 
   
23cm = 2A + B                    ⇒   equation 1  (smaller triangle)
43cm = 2(2A) + B                ⇒   equation 2  (bigger triangle)

Simplifying equation 2.
                                    43cm = 4A + B
  (rearranging)             B = 43cm - 4A        ⇒ equation 3

Substituting equation 3 to equation 1:
   (equation 1)              23cm = 2A + B
                                    23cm = 2A + (43cm - 4A)
                                    23cm = -2A + 43cm
                                    2A = 43cm - 23cm
                                    2A = 20cm  ⇒   length of the leg of the bigger triangle
                                     A = 10cm   ⇒   length of the leg of the smaller triangle

To solve for the base length, just substitute the value of A to equation 3
     (equation 3)       B = 43cm - 4A
                               B = 43cm - 4(10cm)
                               B = 3 cm

Final Answer:

• For the smaller triangle, the length of the sides are 10cm, 10cm, and 3cm
• For the bigger triangle, the length of the sides are 20cm, 20cm, and 3cm

Triangle A'B'C' is a rotation of triangle ABC by 60 degrees using Q as the center.
butalik [34]

Answer:

The correct options are;

D. Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent

E. Angle ABC is congruent to angle A'B'C'

F. Segment BC is congruent to segment B'C'

H. Segment AQ is congruent to segment A'Q'

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The angle of rotation of triangle ABC = 60°

Therefore, given that a rotation of a geometric figure about a point on the coordinate plane is a form of rigid transformation, we have;

1) The length of the sides of the figure of the preimage and the image are congruent

Therefore;

BC ≅ B'C'

2) The angles formed by the sides of the preimage are congruent to the angles formed by the corresponding sides of the image

Therefore;

∠ABC ≅ ∠A'B'C'

3) The distances of the points on the figure of the preimage from the coordinates of the point of rotation are equal to the distances of the points on the figure of the image from the coordinates of the point of rotation

Therefore;

Segment AQ ≅ A'Q'.
