Answer: The required factored form of the given expression is $(x-6)(2y+5).$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to factorize the following expression :

$E=2xy+5x-12y-30~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

We will be using the following property :

$a(b+c)+d(b+c)=(a+d)(b+c).$

From expression (i), we have

$E\\\\=2xy+5x-12y-30\\\\=x(2y+5)-6(2y+5)\\\\=(x-6)(2y+5).$

Thus, the required factored form of the given expression is $(x-6)(2y+5).$

2xy + 5x -12y -30
x(2y + 5) - 6( 2y + 5)
(2y+5) (x-6)

Make a the subject of a2+b2=c2

wel

Answer:

$a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2$

⇒ $a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}$ [Factorized form]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

We need to make $a$ the subject.

In order to do that we need to solve the expression for $a$ in terms of $b$ and $c$

We have,

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

Subtracting both sides by $b^2$

$a^2+b^2-b^2=c^2-b^2$

$a^2=c^2-b^2$

Taking square root both sides in order to remove square of $a$

$\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}$

$a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2$

The difference of squares can be factorized and written as:

$a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}$ [difference of squares $x^2-y^2=(x+y)(x-y)$ ]

What is the simplest form of each espression

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Simplification of an algebraic expression can be defined as the process of writing an expression in the most efficient and compact form without affecting the value of the original expression. The process entails collecting like terms, which implies adding or subtracting terms in an expression.
