Easy...
to even begin to factor..you must factor out a 3, to simplify your answer.
3(12

-7x-10)
Now, you can factor.

So..to find the answer...
12*-10=-120x
and
you would use -7x
What multiplies to -120..but adds to -7?
-15*8=-120
and
-15+8=-7
To find the answer, plug in what you know..
3(3x+2)(4x-5)
Thus, your answer.
A bc to find the ratio u have to divide them for how much 1 would be
The area of the entire square is 144 in^2
The area of the triangle is 6 x 4 / 2
The area of the triangle is 12
144-12= 132
the answer : 132 in ^2

<u>By supplementary angle property</u>,
x + 78° = 180°
x = 180° - 78°
<u>x = 102°.</u>
