I guess you mean:

X^2 - X - 6 and X^2 - 5X + 6

X^2 - X - 6 = (X + 2)(X − 3)

X^2 - 5X + 6 = (X − 2)(X − 3)

Based on that, their common factor is:

(X - 3)

A diver dives from a cliff with a height of 144 feet. His height, h, in feet is given by the equation h=-16t^2+144 , where t is

Deffense [45]

Answer:

It takes 3 seconds for the diver to reach the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height, in feet, is given by the following equation:

$h(t) = -16t^{2} + 144$

How many seconds will it take for the diver to reach the water?

He reaches the water when his height is 0, that is, when h(t) = 0. So

$h(t) = -16t^{2} + 144$

$0 = -16t^{2} + 144$

$16t^{2} = 144$

$t^{2} = \frac{144}{16}$

$t^{2} = 9$

$t = \pm \sqrt{9}$

$t = \pm 3$

There are no negative instant of time, so just t = 3.

It takes 3 seconds for the diver to reach the water.

Write a quadratic equation with roots of

stepladder [879]

If the roots are 1 and 3, the factors of this quadratic are (x-1) and (x-3).
The polynomial is x^2 - 4x + 3.

If you were supposed to write a polynomial based upon all four given roots, then:

Looks as tho' you have four distinct roots. The 4th order polynomial with these roots is f(x) = (x-1)(x-3)(x-7)(x-2). Multiply this out, combine like terms and then arrange the terms in descending order by powers of x.
