Answer:

D. (x-6)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a polynomial x^2-4x-12. We are asked to find the factors of our given polynomial.

We will use splitting the middle term format of factoring quadratic polynomial.

We need two numbers, whose product is -12 and whose sum is -4. Such two numbers are  -6\text{ and }2.

x^2-6x+2x-12

(x^2-6x)+(2x-12)

Factor out GCF of each group:

x(x-6)+2(x-6)

(x-6)(x+2)

Therefore, factors of our given expression are (x-6)(x+2) and option D is the correct choice.

-4x+5 + -13x+39=180 angle measure
mylen [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

−4x+5−13x+39=180

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4x+5−13x+39=180

−4x+5+−13x+39=180

(−4x+−13x)+(5+39)=180(Combine Like Terms)

−17x+44=180

−17x+44=180

Step 2: Subtract 44 from both sides.

−17x+44−44=180−44

−17x=136

Step 3: Divide both sides by -17.−17x

−17

=

136

−17

x=−8

Answer:

x=−8

I’m not 100% sure but it could be 225 and 328. Adding those together you get a sum of 553.

Hope this helped! Mark me brainliest if you’d like, im tryna get too expert!

cora says she doesn't need to know the y-intercept of a line to write its equation, just its slope and some other point on the l
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The equation of line with given slope that include given points is                 3 y + x - 20 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Cora , if we know the slope and points on a line then we can write the equation of a line .

Since , The equation of line in slope-intercept form is

y = m x + c

<u>Where m is the slope of line , and if we know the points ( x , y ) which satisfy the line then constant term c can be get and the equation of line can be formed .</u>

So , From the statement said above it is clear that she is correct .

Now , Again

Given as :

Slope of a line is m = - \frac{1}{3}

That include points ( 2 , 6 )

Now from the equation of line as  y = m x + c

∴   6 =  - \frac{1}{3} ( 2 ) + c

Or, 6 =  - \frac{2}{3}  + c

So , c = 6 + \frac{2}{3}

or,  c = \frac{18 + 2}{3}

∴   c = \frac{20}{3}

So, The equation of line can be written as

 y =   - \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{20}{3}

Or, 3 y = - x + 20

I.e  3 y + x - 20 = 0

Hence The equation of line with given slope that include given points is     3 y + x - 20 = 0   Answer
