Answer:
a factor of 2 is shown, but 4 was factored out
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of squares is factored as ...
a² -b² = (a +b)(a -b)
Then the given difference of squares factors as ...
144x² -100 = (12x)² -10² = (12x +10)(12x -10)
Each of these factors has a factor of 2 that can be factored out:
= (2(6x +5))(2(6x -5))
= (2·2)(6x +5)(6x -5)
= 4(6x +5)(6x -5)
The first factor should be 4, not 2.
Answer:
17 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle on the bottom left is a right triangle.
a² + b² = c²
(8 ft)² + (15 ft)² = (RQ)²
64 ft² + 225 ft² = (RQ)²
(RQ)² = 289 ft²
RQ = 17 ft
Answer:
- True for Co-Prime Numbers
- False for Non Co-Prime Numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>STATEMENT:</u> The LCM of two numbers is the product of the two numbers.
This statement is not true except if the two numbers are co-prime numbers.
Two integers a and b are said to be co-prime if the only positive integer that divides both of them is 1.
<u>Example: </u>
- Given the numbers 4 and 7, the only integer that divides them is 1, therefore they are co-prime numbers and their LCM is their product 28.
- However, consider the number 4 and 8. 1,2 and 4 divides both numbers, they are not co-prime, Their LCM is 8 which is not the product of the numbers.
Original:
<span>The width and length of a rectangle are consecutive odd integers
</span>so W = x and L = x + 2
<span>If the length is increased by 5 feet, then new L = x + 2 + 5 = x + 7
</span>
A = L x W
60 = (x + 7) x
60 = x^2 + 7x
x^2 + 7x - 60 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 12) = 0
x = 5 and x = -12
From here you have x = W = 5 ft and L = x + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7 feet
Area of original = 5 x 7 = 35
answer
<span>the area of the original rectangle: </span>35 ft^2
