Factor Completely 2x²-4x+6

1 answer:

7 0

okay well usually what I would tell you would be to use the ABC method. you would multiply A (2) by C (6) to get twelve. so you need two numbers that multiply to twelve and add to -4 (the B value). but there are no numbers that fit this description so you have to use the GCF method instead

for this method you must find the GCF for all three numbers which in this case is 2. 2(x^2-2x+3) all these numbers are now prime so this is the factored form

Which is a reasonable domain for the function f(x)=10x+8

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

(-∞,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is all possible x values of the function

There are no constraints or holes for this and therefore the domain is all real numbers

A pilot can travel 540 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 380 miles against the wind. Find the speed of the wind

stepladder [879]

T=d/v

540/(230+w)=380/(230-w)

540(230-w)=380(230+w)

124200-540w=87400+380w

124200-920w=87400

-920w=-36800

w=40

So the wind speed is 40 miles per hour.

Answer:

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^6y^4}{81x^2y^8}}\rightarrow\frac{2x}{3y}\\\sqrt[4]{\frac{81x^2y^{10}}{81x^6y^6}} \rightarrow\frac{3y}{2x}\\\sqrt[3]{\frac{64x^8y^7}{125x^2y^{10}}}\rightarrow\frac{4x^2}{5y}\\\sqrt[5]{\frac{243x^{17}y^{16}}{32x^7y^{21}}}\rightarrow\frac{3x^2}{2y}\\\sqrt[5]{\frac{32x^{12}y^{15}}{243x^7y^{10}}} \rightarrow\frac{2xy}{3}\\\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^{10}y^{9}}{256x^2y^{17}}}\rightarrow\frac{x}{2y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^6y^4}{81x^2y^8}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(2^4)(x^{6-2})(y^{4-8})}{(3^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{2^4x^4y^{-4}}{3^4}} =\frac{2xy^{-1}}{3}=\frac{2x}{3y}$

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{81x^2y^{10}}{81x^6y^6}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(3^4)(x^{2-6})(y^{10-6})}{(2^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{3^4x^{-4}y^{4}}{2^4}} =\frac{3x^{-1}y^1}{3}=\frac{3y}{2x}$

$\sqrt[3]{\frac{64x^8y^7}{125x^2y^{10}}} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{(4^3)(x^{8-2})(y^{7-10})}{(5^3)}} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{4^3x^6y^{-3}}{5^3}} =\frac{4x^2y^{-1}}{5}=\frac{4x^2}{5y}$

$\sqrt[5]{\frac{243x^{17}y^{16}}{32x^7y^{21}}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{(3^5)(x^{17-7})(y^{16-21})}{(2^5)}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{3^5x^{10}y^{-5}}{2^5}} =\frac{3x^2y^{-1}}{2}=\frac{3x^2}{2y}$

$\sqrt[5]{\frac{32x^{12}y^{15}}{243x^7y^{10}}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{(2^5)(x^{12-7})(y^{15-10})}{(3^5)}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{2^5x^{5}y^{5}}{3^5}} =\frac{2x^1y^{1}}{3}=\frac{2xy}{3}$

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^{10}y^{9}}{256x^2y^{17}}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(2^4)(x^{10-2})(y^{9-17})}{(4^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{2^4x^{8}y^{-8}}{4^4}} =\frac{2x^{1}y^{-1}}{4}=\frac{x}{2y}$
