<h3><u>(2x - 5)(4x - 3)</u></h3>
The AC method, also known as splitting the middle, can be shown like this:
8x^2 - 26x + 15
<em><u>Check factors of 120.</u></em>
1 * 120
-1 * -120
2 * 60
-2 * -60
3 * 40
-3 * -40
5 * 24
-5 * -24
6 * 20
-6 * -20 (these factors, when added together, are equal to the middle term, and thus splitting the middle term is possible.)
<em><u>Split the middle term.</u></em>
8x^2 - 6x - 20x + 15
<em><u>Group in terms of 2.</u></em>
(8x^2 - 6x) - (20x + 15)
<em><u>Factor each binomial.</u></em>
2x(4x - 3) - 5(4x - 3)
<em><u>Rearrange the terms.</u></em>
(2x - 5)(4x - 3)
Answer:
Scale Factor = 3
x=45
y=75
Step-by-step explanation:
Scale Factor = 60/20 = 3
x=15*3=45
Y=25*3=75
Answer: 800 feet²
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets remove the brackets from the function's expression
A(x) = -2x²+80x
So we got the quadratic function and we have to find the x that corresponds to function's maximum. Let it be X max
As we know Xmax= (X1+X2)/2 , where X1 and X2 are the roots of the function A(x)
Lets find X1 and X2
x(80-2x)=0
x1=0 80-2*X2=0
x2=40
So Xmax= (0+40)/2=20
So Amax= A(20)= 20*(80-2*20)=20*40=800 feet²
Answer:
x = -27
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+27=3x
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.
==> 4x + 27 -3x = 3x - 3x
==> 4x - 3x + 27 = 0
==> 1x + 27 = 0
Subtract 27 from both sides,
==> x + 27 - 27 = 0 - 27
==> x = -27
