Solve x^2=2x+3 by factoring

The solution is x = 1 and x = -3

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to solve the given equation by factoring

Given equation is:

x^2=2x + 3\\\\x^2 - 2x - 3 = 0

\text{Consider the form } x^2+bx+c

Find a pair of integers whose product is c and and whose sum is b

\text{Compare } x^2-2x-3 = 0 \text{ with } x^2+bx +c\\\\\text{We get } b = -2 \text{ and } c = -3

Now find, a pair of integers whose sum is -2 and product is -3

The integers that satisfies this condition is -1 and 3

When we add - 1 and 3 we get 2

When multiply -1 and 3 we get -3

Thus the pair of integers are -1 and 3

Write the factored form using these integers.

(x-1)(x+3) = 0

The Zero Product Property states that if ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0, or both a and b are 0

Set the factors equal to 0

x - 1 = 0 \text{ and } x + 3 = 0

x = 1 and x = -3

Thus the solution is x = 1 and x = -3

Factor the polynomial completely.<br><br> 9g^2 - 30gh + 25h^2
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a perfect square.

It factors into (3g - 5h)^2

or (3g - 5h)(3g - 5h)

Make sure it is correctly factored.

3g*3g = 9g^2

3g * - 5h  = - 15gh

-5h*3g = - 15gh

5h*5h = 25h^2

These four terms add to 9g^2 - 15gh - 15gh + 25h^2 = 9g^2 - 30gh + 25h^2 which is exactly what you started with.

Which values from the given replacement set make up the solution set of the inequality? 2b≥6;
Bingel [31]
The answer is A because the variable can’t be no lower than 3 and every other answer has 2 in it. 2•(3) is equal to 6 and 2•(4) is greater than 6 which correlates with the sign (greater than or equal to).
