Answer:

x = 2 and ( -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the zero factors of the given equation

y = x² + 2x - 8

for zero factor we will put y = 0

0 = x² + 2x - 8

0 = x² + 4x - 2x - 8

0 = x (x+4) - 2(x + 4)

0 = (x + 4) (x - 2)

So zero factors will be

x + 4 = 0

x = -4

( x-2) = 0

x = 2

Therefore, x = 2 and ( -4) will be the zeros of the given equation.

Y = x² + 2x - 8

which two numbers add up to 2 and multiply to -8?

-2 and 4

so rewrite the expression using the above;

(x - 2)(x + 4)
x = 2, -4

so the zeros are 2 and -4.

hope this helps, God bless!

Use the geometric mean to find the 7th term in a geometric sequence if the 6th term is 12 and the 8th term is 27. 20 19.5 18 17
Lesechka [4]
A₆ =12

a₇ = ?? = x

a₈ 27

In this case x is the geometric mean & as per the formula
geometric mean of 2 numbers =√(a₆ * a₈) = √(12*27)
& x=18.
Proof:
Find the common ratio between a₇ & a₆ ==> = ( x) / 12
now find the common ration between a₈ & a₇ ===> =27 / (x)
x/12 = 27/x ===> x² = 12*27 ==> x² = 324 & x =√324 = 18

Answer:

  (-5/3, -4/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

  3 < 6c +13 < 5 . . . . given

  -10 < 6c < -8 . . . . . subtract 13

  -10/6 < c < -8/6 . . . divide by 6

We can express the interval using reduced fractions as ...

If f(x)= 3x^2- 4 and g(x) = 2x-6, what is g(f(2))?<br> -16<br> 0-2<br> O 8<br> 10
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

g(f(x)) = g(3x² - 4) = 2(3x² - 4) - 6

so

g(f(2) = 2(3*2² - 4) - 6 = 2*8 - 6 = 16 - 6 = 10
