Perhaps the most concise way to factor is by "completing the square" which is how the quadratic formula is derived...
x^2+6x+8=0 move constant to other side, subtract 8 from both sides
x^2+6x=-8, halve the linear coefficient, square it, then add that to both sides, in this case (6/2)^2=3^2=9
x^2+6x+9=1 now the left side is a perfect square of the form
(x+3)^2=1 take the square root of both sides
x+3=±√1 subtract 3 from both sides
x=-3±√1
x=-3±1
x=-4 and -2
Since the zeros occur when x=-4 and -2 the factors of the equation are:
(x+2)(x+4)
Answer:
Yes it does. It is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 8 from both sides then divide both sides by -8 and you get 1.
F(g(x)) = x + 1 . Just replace square root of x-2 to x in f(x)
Answer:
A Yana's average number of points is 0.5 points greater than Amber's
Step-by-step explanation:
i added up all of Yana's points = 15
I added up all of Amber's points = 12
then i divided them both by 6 because there is 6 numbers total so then i got
Yana = 2.5 Amber = 2
2.5 - 2 = 0.5 so Yana's average number of points is 0.5 points greater than Amber's

10 seats are nonsplash zone
18-8=10 because there are 18 total seats and 8 splash zone seats just subtract them Hope this helped :)
