3x² + 8x + 4
First, i divide the equation into two parenthesis, so that the first parts of both multiply to make the first term, 3x². 3x * x = 3x²
(3x  +    )(x +  )
Then I find two numbers that multiply to make 4, which are 1 and 4, or 2 and 2. 
Our options are: 
(3x + 1)(x + 4) 
(3x + 4)(x + 1)
(3x + 2)(3x +2)

To figure out which one to use, I'm just going to FOIL them all. 
(3x + 1)(x + 4)  = 3x² + 1x + 12x + 4 = 3x² + 13x + 4
(3x + 4)(x + 1) = 3x² + 4x + 3x + 4 = 3x² + 7x + 4
(3x + 2)(x +2) = 3x² + 2x + 6x + 4 = 3x² + 8x + 4

The factored form is: 
(3x + 2)(x + 2) 

To solve for the roots ( where the graph crosses the x axis, where y = 0) we set the equation equal to 0:

(3x + 2)(x + 2) = 0
The zero product property says that anything times 0 is 0, so we set each individual part equal to 0 and solve for the two roots. 

3x + 2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3

x + 2 = 0 
x = -2

In this type of equation you could use different methods. But I choose to do Quadratic Method.

a= 3, b= 8, and c= 4.

X= -(8)+_SQUARE ROOT (8)^2-4(3)(4)/2(3)

X= -8+_SQUARE ROOT16/6 Square Root of 16 is 4

X= -8+_4/6

X=  -8+4/6= -4/6= -2/3.

X= -8-4/6= -12/6= -2.

Answer is: -2/3 and -2.

Draw 2 supplementary angles. One angle is x-15 degrees and one is 2x degrees. What is the value of x in degrees?
Bond [772]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary, it means the addition of both angles gives 180 degree.

x - 15 + 2x = 180\\3x = 180 + 15\\3x = 195\\x = \frac{195}{3} \\x = 65
