If the polynomial is of the form x^2+bx+c (ie., no factor in front of the x^2!!) then you can look for numbers that add up to b and multiply to c.
So in this case: what two numbers, when added, give -2 and when multiplied, give 1? A little trial and error gives you -1 and -1.
So the factorization is (x-1)(x-1). This is zero for x=1. There is only one zero.
Answer:
Actually, there are two. They are the Parallelogram Opposite Sides Theorem and the Parallelogram Opposite Angles Theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
POST means that if opposite sides of a quadrilateral are the same, it's a parallelogram.
POAT means that if opposite sides of a quadrilateral are the same, it's a parallelogram.
A quadrilateral has to meet both of these theorems to be a parallelogram.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ryan works mowing lawns and babysitting. He earns $8.20 an hour for mowing and $7.70 an hour for babysitting. Therefore, the expression for the total amount that he would earn if he mows lawns for x hours and babysits for y hours would be
8.2x + 7.7y
Therefore, the amount that he would earn for 3 hours of mowing and 7hours of babysitting is
(8.2 × 3) + (7.7 × 7)
= 24.8 + 53.9
= $78.7
sqrt(1234) = 35.1283
you don't say how it should be rounded, so round off as needed
