It factors to (x+12)(x-12)
This is the same as (x-12)(x+12) as we can multiply two expressions in any order we want. This is like saying 7*5 is the same as 5*7
I used the difference of squares rule to factor x^2 - 144. It might help to write x^2 - 144 as x^2 - 12^2, then compare it to a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
3x + 7 = -x - 1
3x + 7 + = -1
4x + 7 = -1
4x = -1 - 7
4x = -8
x = -2
1 - 2x + 5 = 4x - 3
-2x + 6 = 4x - 3
6 = 4x - 3 + 2x
6 = 6x - 3
6 + 3 = 6x
9 = 6x
x = 6/9
x = 2/3
i helped you with the first two questions so you can see how you can solve it.
hope this helps, God bless!
Answer:
x = 11.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°. Since we have the expressions for each angle: 5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:
5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180
Combine like terms: 15x + 9 = 180
Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9
15x = 171 or x = 11.4
Check: 5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180
Answer:
Each interior angle = 180° -60° = 120°
Step-by-step explanation: We know that the three angles in a triangle, add up to 180°, and all the three angles are 60° in an equilateral triangle. The total number of angles of an enclosed space is 180° (n-2) where in is the number of sides.
A hexagon has six sides, so: s= 180° (6-2)
s= 180° x 4
s= 720°
now since in a regular shape, each interior angle is equal. We just divide the total interior angle with a number of sides
6.
720° divided by 6 is equal to 120°
