If x -6 is one factor of x^2 - 10x +24, which is the other factor?

To get the other factor of the expression x² - 10x + 24, we can use long or synthetic division. We are given that the other factor is x - 6, so we can use that as our divisor. Our setup should look something like this:
x² - 10x + 24 ÷ x - 6
Here is the work using polynomial long division:
         <u> x     -4          </u>   
x - 6 | x² - 10x + 24
         <u> </u><span><u>x² - 6x</u>
</span>          0  - 4x + 24
               <span><u>-4x - 24</u>
</span>                          0
We can see that our quotient is x - 4, which would be the other factor of x - 6 to get x² - 10x + 24. The answer to your query is x - 4. Hope this helps and have a phenomenal day!

I buy a MP3 player for £40 in a sale where it was 20% off. What was the original price
natta225 [31]
20% off means you paid only 80% of the original price.
0.8x=40
x=40÷0.8=50
so the original price is 50

Can someone help me with this problem ​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<h2>A = 20</h2><h2>P = 6√10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

A(-3, 0) , B(3, 2)

AB=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(2-0)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+2^2}=\sqrt{36+4}=\sqrt{40}=\sqrt{4\cdot10}=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt{10}=2\sqrt{10}

A(-3, 0), D(-2, -3)

AD=\sqrt{(-2-(-3))^2+(-3-0)^2}=\sqrt{1^2+(-3)^2}=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10}

AB = CD and AD = BC

The area of a rectangle:

A=(AB)(AD)

Substitute:

A=(2\sqrt{10})(\sqrt{10})=(2)(10)=20

The perimeter of a rectangle:

P=2(AB+AD)

Substitute:

P=2(2\sqrt{10}+\sqrt{10})=2(3\sqrt{10})=6\sqrt{10}

Please help me with #4 <br> (10 points )
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a right isosceles triangle having lengths of two sides 12 feet and 16 feet.

<em>Since, the triangle is an isosceles triangle i.e. two sides of the triangle are equal.</em>

That is, the three sides of the triangle are 12 feet, 12 feet and 16 feet.

We know that, Perimeter of a triangle = Sum of the sides

Thus, Perimeter of the given triangle = 12 + 12 + 16 = 24 + 16 = 40 feet.

Hence, the total length of the fencing needed is 40 feet.

the first few steps in solving the quadratic equation 5x2 27x = 14 − 13x by completing the square are shown. 5x2 27x = 14 − 13x
Artist 52 [7]
The best step to do next is to add 80 to both sides of equation:
5 ( x² + 8 x ) + 80 = 14 + 80
and since  80 =  5 · 16
5 ( x² + 8 x + 16 ) = 94   Answer : B ) 
After that we will continue like this:
5 ( x + 4 )² = 94 
( x + 4 )² = 18.8 ... etc
