Quadratic formula where:
ax ^{2}  + bx + c
\frac{ - b + { \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }}{2a}
\frac{ - b -  \sqrt{b { }^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}
do both do get the roots of the equation

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

A short answer is that you cannot factor this the way you are trying to do it. What to do to go on is a question. You could use the quadratic formula to get some sort of answer but if factoring is your only option, forget about it.

Here's how you can check.

  • a = 12
  • b = 1
  • c = -15

There is a part of the quadratic solution is the sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c). In order to be factorable, this sqrt must result in a perfect square.

sqrt(1 - 4(12)(-15) ) = sqrt( 1 - - 720) = sqrt(721)

This is anything but a perfect square. (721 does factor, however, into 7 * 103). I03 is prime. So the long and short of it is, there's no way it will factor.

The difference of 7 and the product of 4 and a is 11
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Product of 4 and a number translates to 4x because the word product means multiplication.
We then need to subtract one from that which would be 4x - 1.
The word is translates to "equals" so 4x - 1 = 11 is the translation of the whole problem.

Now solve that equation.
4x - 1 = 11
1st add +1 +1
2nd simplify 4x = 12
3rd divide. 4 4
x = 3

A helicopter is hovering 110 feet in the air over a landing pad. If a man sees the helecopter at an angle of elevation of 29°, w
Pavel [41]
See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

tan 29°=AC/CB--------> CB=AC/tan 29°
AC=110 ft 
CB--------> <span>how far the man is from the helicopter landing pad
</span>so
CB=AC/tan 29°----------> CB=110/ tan 29°----------> CB=198.45 ft

the answer is
the man is  198.45 ft  from the helicopter landing pad
