we are given
trinomial as
now, we can factor it
so, option-C and D ..............Answer
Because the two triangles are similar, their angles will be the exact same.
Therefore, Angle B is 130 degrees
The answer is D.
There isn't a graph to look at for the second question so I can't help you on that one
4. Let the numbers be x - 2, x, and x + 2, where x is an odd number.
2(x² - 4) - 4x = (x + 2)² + 21
2x² - 8 - 4x = x² + 4x + 4 + 21
2x² - 4x - 8 = x² + 4x + 25
x² - 8x - 33 = 0
(x - 11)(x + 3) = 0
x = 11, or -3
When x = 11, x - 2 = 9, x + 2 = 13
When x = -3, x - 2 = -5, x + 2 = -1
Explanation: You are on the right track. However, rather than having three unknown variables, try to reduce your working out to one unknown variable. Since you know they are consecutive odd numbers, you can simply let x be the middle term and the other two be + and - 2, provided x is an odd number.
That will reduce your variable issues, and helps as the first and third provide a difference of two squares, and this works out very nicely.
Q5: is essentially the same process. Let your variables be something in the form of one unknown variable, and you should be okay from there. Let me know if you're stuck.
Answer:
- 9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
slope m = (y2 - y1) /(x2 - x1) = (14 - 5)/(1 - 3)= 9/(-2)= - 9/2
