If the smaller integer is n, then the larger one has to be n+2

n + 2(n+2) = 43

Which solution of the equation can be determined from the graph? The solution is? The set of the other solution is?

Gennadij [26K]

SOLUTION

The given equation is

$x^3+3x^2-16x-48=0$

From the given graph, one of the solution of the equation is

$x=4$

Since x=4 is a solution to the equation it follows that x-4 is a factor

The given equatin can be simplified as

$x^3+3x^2-16x-48=(x-4)(x+4)(x+3)$

Therefefore other solutions are

$x=-4,x=-3$

Marya wants to factor the polynomial 36x3 – 22x2 – 144x. Which term can she add to the polynomial that would not change its grea

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

-50xy and -40x²

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Common factor of the letters: x, x², and x³.

It is the common letter with the lowest exponent: x

2) Common factors of the coefficients (numbers): 36, 22, and 144

i) prime factors of 36: 36 = 2² × 3²

ii) prime factors of 22: 22 = 2 × 11

iii) prime factors of 144: 2⁴ × 3²

iv) Greatest common factor: the repeated number raised to the lowest power: 2.

3) Therefore, the greatest common factor of the terms 36x³ - 22x² - 144x is 2x

4) Any number that has 2x as a factor will not change this common factor.

5) Factors of the choices:

i) –11: 2x is not a factor of - 11, therefore this does not apply

ii) –50xy: 2x is a factor, since - 50xy / (2x) = - 25y, therefore this applies.

iii) –40x²: 2x is a factor, since - 40x² / (2x) = -20x, therefore this applies

iv) 24: 2x is not factor of 24, therefore this does not apply

v) 10y: 2x is not a factor of 10y, therefore this does not apply

Ahat [919]

The domain is all the positive values and the range is also all the positive values.

Then the answer is the option D) s>0 and V(s) > 0.

Distance Formula: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

Point (2, 1)

Point (6, 7)

<u>Step 2: Find distance </u><em><u>d</u></em>

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance <em>d</em>

Substitute in points [Distance Formula]: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(6 - 2)^2 + (7 - 1)^2}$
[√Radical] (Parenthesis) Subtract: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{4^2 + 6^2}$
[√Radical] Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{16 + 36}$
[√Radical] Add: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{52}$
[√Radical] Simplify: $\displaystyle d = 2\sqrt{13}$
