<h3>Answer: x(x+1)(5x+9) </h3>
===================================================
Work Shown:
5x^3 + 14x^2 + 9x
x( 5x^2 + 14x + 9 )
To factor 5x^2 + 14x + 9, we could use the AC method and guess and check our way to getting the correct result.
A better way in my opinion is to solve 5x^2 + 14x + 9 = 0 through the quadratic formula
Then use those two solutions to find the factorization
x = -1 or x = -9/5
x+1 = 0 or 5x = -9
x+1 = 0 or 5x+9 = 0
(x+1)(5x+9) = 0
So we have shown that 5x^2 + 14x + 9 factors to (x+1)(5x+9)
-----------
Overall,
5x^3 + 14x^2 + 9x
factors to
x(x+1)(5x+9)
You would begin by choosing which trigonometric function to use.
In this case, you would use sine.
Sine is opposite over hypotenuse.
Opposite of the 35 degree angle is 18, and you want to find the hypotenuse which is x.
sin(35) =
(multiply x to both sides)
x sin(35) = 18 (divide sin(35) to both sides)
x = 31.38204...
So, therefore x = 31.38. I don't know what decimal point you're supposed to round to, so I'm gonna guess the hundredths place. :)
