Answer:
x= 20 x =-5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 – 15x – 100 = 0.
What two numbers multiply to -100 and add to -15
-20 * 5 = -100
-20 +5 = -15
(x-20) (x+5) =0
Using the zero product property
x-20 =0 x+5 = 0
x= 20 x =-5
Whoever goes first will lose, that's the solution

Answer: 2</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
If a number only has one factor pair, then that number must be prime. This is because prime numbers only have factors of 1 and the number itself.
For instance, the value 7 is prime because the only factors of this are 1 and 7.
For something like the number 32, it is composite and not prime because it has the factors {1,2,4,8,16,32} and it leads to these three factor pairs: 1*32, 2*16, 4*8. This is one example showing why the answer isn't composite.
-----------
Let's say that p is the unknown prime we want to find. The factors of this are 1 and p. We're told that "one of the factors is twice the other factor", so that must mean p = 2*1 = 2. We can see that 2 is twice that of 1.
Parallel slope = 2
This is because the original line has slope 2. Parallel lines have equal slopes.
--------------------------
Perpendicular slope = -1/2
The original slope 2 or 2/1 turns into -1/2 after flipping the fraction and the sign. Note the original slope and perpendicular slope multiply to -1. This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.
Answer:
x^3-10x^2+1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
For standard form you need to put the exponents in order. So x^3 is first, followed by -10x^2, and finally 1/9. Hope this helps!
