Answer:

\large\boxed{w^2+18w+77=(w+11)(w+7)}

Step-by-step explanation:

w^2+18w+77\\\\77=7\cdot11\\18=7+11\\\\w^2+18w+77=w^2+11w+7w+77=w(w+11)+7(w+11)\\\\=(w+11)(w+7)

<h3>Other method:</h3>

\text{Use:}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\w^2+18w+77=0\qquad\text{subtract 77 from both sides}\\\\w^2+18w=-77\\\\w^2+2(w)(9)=-77\qquad\text{add}\ 9^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\w^2+2(x)(9)+9^2=-77+9^2\\\\(w+9)^2=-77+81\\\\(w+9)^2=4\to w+9=\pm\sqrt4\\\\w+9=-2\ \vee\ w+9=2\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\w=-11\ \vee\ w=-7\\\\(w-(-11))(w-(-7))=(w+11)(w+7)

Answer:

(w + 11)(w + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 77) which sum to give the coefficient of the w- term ( + 18)

The factors are + 11 and + 7, since

11 × 7 = 77 and + 11 + 7 = + 18

w² + 18w + 77 = (w + 11)(w + 7)

Answer:

Hey there!

We don't have enough information. 7(n+5) can be written as either the 7 times the sum of n+5, or 7 multiplied by n+5.

Let me know if this helps :)

How to reflect over y axis in an equation?
iren [92.7K]
<span>1)  y = -f(x) (This is the reflection about the x-axis of the graph y = f(x).)  That is for every point (x, y) there is a point (x, -y).
</span><span>2)  y = |f(x)| means that the entire graph will be above the x-axis.  Why?  (The absolute value is always positive, that's why!!)<span>  To graph the absolute value graph, graph the function y = f(x).  Anything above the x-axis, stays above it, anything below the x-axis is reflected above the x-axis and anything on the x-axis, stays on the x-axis.
</span></span><span>3)  y = f(-x)  (This is reflection about the y-axis of the graph y = f(x))  For every point on the right of the y-axis, there is a point equidistant to the left of the y-axis.  That is for every point (x, y), there is a point (-x, y).  
</span><span>4)  Reflections about the line y = x is accomplished by interchanging the x and the y-values.  Thus for y = f(x) the reflection about the line y = x is accomplished by x = f(y).  Thus the reflection about the line y = x for y = x2 is the equation x = y2. </span>

Kevin cycles 18 miles every morning as part of his exercise. The time it takes him to complete the distance varies inversely as
Schach [20]

Hello, I am papaguy


Here is your answer


In terms of distance, the average speed for the total x miles you'd travel would be 50 miles per hour. However, if you include the fact that you spent less time traveling 60 miles per hour than 40, the average would be closer to 40 than 60 miles per hour.


Please note this is information you can use do not copy and paste.


Thank you papaguy And If I am wrong I will look into it!
