Answer:
m=22.2
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the Pythagorean’s theorem i.e
hypotenuse^2=opposite^2+adjacent^2
Where
Hypotenuse =unknown
Opposite =18
Adjacent =13
Hyp^2=18^2+13^2
Hyp^2=324+169
Hyp^2=493
Hyp=sqrt 493
Hyp=m=22.2
It’s 30 months because 2.5 years old times 12 months in a year is 30
Factor the coefficients:
-12=(-1)(3)(2^2)
-9=(-1)(3^2)
3=3
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 3
Next we find the GCF for the variable x.
x^4
x^3
x^2
The GCF is x^2.
Next GCF for variable y.
y
y^2
y^3
the GCF is y
Therefore the GCF is 3x^2y
To factor this out, we need to divide each term by the GCF,
(3x^2y)(−12x4y/(3x^2y) − 9x3y2/(3x^2y) + 3x2y3/(3x^2y) )
=(3x^2y)(-4x^2-3xy+y^2)
if we wish, we can factor further:
(3x^2y)(y-4x)(x+y)
