How do you factor quadratics trinomials

Mathematics

Doss [256]3 years ago

You can factor trinomials by taking factors of the lead term (x^2) and using them in the front of a set of parenthesis. For instance, if you had 2x^2 as the first term, you would use (2x _____)(x______).

Now to find what goes at the end of the parenthesis, you take factors of the last number. Say our last number was -5, we could use -5 and 1 or 5 and -1. For the purpose of this, we'll use -5 and 1. This would give us (2x - 5)(x + 1).

Now, to be sure you've selected the right ones, you would multiply the two parenthesis together and see if the middle term matches the original equation.

(2x - 5)(x + 1)

2x^2 - 5x + 2x - 5

2x^2 - 3x - 5

So you'll notice that the middle term is -3. If this wasn't the original, you could try those numbers in a different order until you get the correct middle term.

A map using a scale inch of 1 to 5 miles shows a section of land with an area of 3.2 in.² what is the actual area of the section
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The actual area of land is 80 mi² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we have to find the actual area so first we have to square the ratio(scale factor) :

1 in : 5 mi

(1 in)² : (5 mi)²

1 in² : 25 mi²

Next, the actual area will be :

1 in² = 25 mi²

(1 × 3.2) in² = (25 × 3.2) mi²

3.2 in² = 80 mi²

Paul [167]

Answer: Simplified Equation (10x-10)

Answer if 3=x is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

the original side lengths are 3x and (2x-5) so multiply both those by 2.

Now you have 6x and 4x-10.

Now combine those and you have 10x-10.

Then plug in 3 for x
