Answer:
2(x - 3)(x - 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = 2x² - 24x + 54 ← factor out 2 from each term
= 2(x² - 12x + 27) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 27) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 12)
The factors are - 3 and - 9 , since
- 3 × - 9 = + 27 and - 3 - 9 = - 12 , thus
x² - 12x + 27 = (x - 3)(x - 9) and
f(x) = 2(x - 3)(x - 9) ← in factored form
Answer: 59049
Step-by-step explanation: To choose the first digit, we have 9 options. As the digit could repeat, for the second, we have 9 options too. Follow this procedure, we have nine options for all digits. Therefore, the result is obtained by multiplying five terms equal to 9, that is 9x9x9x9x9 = 59049.
The answer to your question would be 32x^2
0 it has no simplest form
9x-(2x+8)
Distribute the - to both 2x and 8
9x-2x-8
simplify
7x-8
