The simplified form of the expression, 6x²-23x+15, is (6x - 5)(x - 3)

The simplified form of the expression, x²-9, is (x + 3)(x - 3)

<h3>Factoring an Expression</h3>

From the question, we are to simplify the given expression by factoring

The given expression is

6x² - 23x + 15

Factoring

6x² - 23x + 15

6x² - 18x - 5x + 15

6x(x - 3) -5(x - 3)

(6x - 5)(x - 3)

∴ The simplified form of the expression is (6x - 5)(x - 3)

We are to simplify

x² - 9

By difference of two squares, we have that

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

x² - 9 can be expressed as

x² - 3²

Thus,

Using difference of two squares

x² - 3² = (x + 3)(x - 3)

Hence, the simplified form of the expression is (x + 3)(x - 3)

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 6m shorter than the longer leg. the hypotenuse is 6m longer than the longer leg. find the
Gennadij [26K]
Short leg = x-6m
Longer leg =x
Hypotenuse = x+6m

x² + (x-6)² =(x+6)²
x² + x²-12x+36 = x²+12x+36
2x²-12x+36= x² +12x+36
2x²-12x+36-36= x² +12x+36-36
2x² - 12x-12x = x²+12x-12x
2x² -24x-x² = x²-x²
x² -24x = 0
x(x-24)=0
x = 24

Short leg = 24-6m = 18
Longer leg =24
Hypotenuse = 24+6m=30

Check
a² + b² = c²
18² +24² =30²
324 +576 = 900
900=900

Y=-x^2-10x+24 What is the y value of the vertex?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Get the equation in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c.

2.) Calculate -b / 2a. This is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

3.) To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, simply plug the value of -b / 2a into the equation for x and solve for y. This is the y-coordinate of the vertex.

1.) y = -x^2 - 10x + 24

2.) -(-10) / 2(-1) = -5

3.) y = -(-5)^2 - 10(-5) + 24

    y = -25 + 50 + 24

    y = 49

PLEASE HELP ASAP! NO SCAMS ALLOWED!
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I used calculus for this, as I'm not sure there's any other way to do it and to do it as easily. This is the volume of a solid found by using the disk method of rotation:

V=\pi\int\limits^a_b {[R(x)]^2-[r(x)]^2} \, dx

where R(x) is the outer shell of the solid and r(x) is the space inbetween the solid and the axis of rotation. There is no space between the solid and the axis of rotation, so r(x) = 0. R(x) is the height of the solid which is 3. Therefore, f(x) = 3 and that's the function we put into the formula with the lower bound of 3 and the upper bound of 5:

V=\pi\int\limits^5_3 {3^2}-0^2 \, dx  and

V-\pi\int\limits^5_3 {9} \, dx  and integrating:

V=\pi(9x\left \} {{5} \atop 3}} \right. and using the First Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:

V = π(9(5) - 9(3)) and

V = π(45 - 27) so

V = 18π units cubed or in decimal format,

V = 56.549 units cubed

10 points for answering!<br> What is the answer to 13, 14, and 15?
ki77a [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>13. </h2>

\implies\sf{ {x}^{2} = 144 } \\  \\  \implies\sf{ x =  \pm \sqrt{144} }   \\  \\ \implies\sf{ x =  \pm 12 }

<h2>14.</h2>

\implies\sf{ {x}^{2} =  \dfrac{25}{289}  } \\  \\  \implies\sf{ x =  \pm \sqrt{ \frac{25}{289} } }   \\  \\ \implies\sf{ x =  \pm  \frac{5}{17}  }

<h2>15.</h2>

\implies\sf{ {x}^{3} = 216 } \\  \\  \implies\sf{ x =   \sqrt[3]{216}  }   \\  \\ \implies\sf{ x =  6 }
