So focusing on x^4 + 5x^2 - 36, we will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -36x^4 and a sum of 5x^2? That would be 9x^2 and -4x^2. Replace 5x^2 with 9x^2 - 4x^2: 
Next, factor x^4 + 9x^2 and -4x^2 - 36 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity inside of the parentheses: 
Now you can rewrite this as
, however this is not completely factored. With (x^2 - 4), we are using the difference of squares, which is
. Applying that here, we have
. x^4 + 5x^2 - 36 is completely factored.
Next, focusing now on 2x^2 + 9x - 5, we will also be completing the square. What two terms have a product of -10x^2 and a sum of 9x? That would be 10x and -x. Replace 9x with 10x - x: 
Next, factor 2x^2 + 10x and -x - 5 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 
Now you can rewrite the equation as
. 2x^2 + 9x - 5 is completely factored.
<h3><u>Putting it all together, your factored expression is

Answer:
x = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
AC // DE
m∠ABD ≅ m∠BDE = 72°
m∠ADB + m∠BDE + m∠EDF = 180°
2x + 72° + 2x = 180°
4x = 108°
x = 27°
Answer:
10^-1*2.65
Step-by-step explanation:
two hundred sixty-five thousandths= 0.265
We need a number between 1 and 10, to do the multiplication in standard form, so 0.265 turns into 2.65.
Because 2.65 becomes, smaller we use a negative power. We only move the decimal place once to the left, so we would multiply 2.65 by 10^1.
10^-1*2.65=0.265
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) w <= 40 lbs
b) Do you have any bag that weigh 0 lbs or negative lbs?
We need to rewrite the inequality so that these are not there
0<= w <= 40 lbs
