Answer:
x = 3 . . . or . . . x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The factored form is ...
(x -3)(x -4) = 0
The zero product rule tells you the solutions are the values of x that make the factors be zero:
x = 3
x = 4

Comment on factoring
When the leading coefficient is 1, the coefficient of the x-term is the sum of the constants in the binomial factors, and the constant term is their product. You can see this by multiplying out the generic case:
(x +a)(x +b) = x^2 +(a+b)x + ab
What this means is that when you're factoring, you're looking for factors of the constant that add up to give the coefficient of the x-term. Here, the x-term is negative and the constant is positive, so both factors will be negative.
12 = -1×-12 = -2×-6 = -3×-4
The sums of these factor pairs are -13, -8, -7. Clearly, the last pair of factors of 12 will be useful to us, since that sum is -7. So, the binomial factors of our equation are ...
(x -3)(x -4) = 0
___
If the leading coefficient is not zero, the method of factoring is similar, but slightly different. Numerous videos and web sites discuss the method(s).
Answer:
28, 35, 43
Step-by-step explanation:
8-7 = 1
10-8 = 2
13-10 = 3
As you can see you need to add one extra numbers and the sequence goes on
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
by theorem :
f continu in [1 , 2]
f(1)×f(2) < 0 because : f(1) = -1 and f(2) = 15
so the equation f(x)=0 has at least one real root between x=1 and x=2
so :
Answer:
2 is the opposite of-2 and -2 is the opposite of 2
Answer:
x > 0 and y < 2
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition the inverse of a function is simply, when the domain and range are swapped. So if the domain of g(x) is x < 2 and y > 0, then the inverse will have these swapped. So x > 0 and y < 2
