Step-by-step explanation:
(1) Factor the GCF out of the trinomial on the left side of the equation. (2 points: 1 for the GCF, 1 for the trinomial) 2x²+6x-20=0
2x²+6x-20
2(x²+3x-10)
the factors are 2 and (x²+3x-10)
(2) Factor the polynomial completely. (4 points: 2 point for each factor)
2(x²+3x-10)
2(x²-2x+5x-10)
2(x(x-2) + 5(x-2)) group like terms
2(x+5)(x-2)
(3) If a product is equal to zero, we know at least one of the factors must be zero. And the constant factor cannot be zero. So set each binomial factor equal to 0 and solve for x, the width of your project. (2 points: 1 point for each factor)
constant = 2 cannot be zero
the other factors are (x+5) and (x-2)
(x+5)=0 => x= -5
or
(x-2)=0 => x=2
(4) What are the dimensions of your project? Remember that the width of your project is represented by x. (2 points: 1 point for each dimension)
thank you so much, sorry if it's a little confusing!!
(it is indeed confusing, because physical dimensions cannot be negative)
The dimensions of the project (assumed a rectangle) are +2 and -5
Answer:
There are 59.66 inches in the circumference of the large pizza.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
Diameter of Joe's large pizza = 19 inches
Diameter = 2r
2r = 19
Circumference of large pizza = 2πr = 2r * π
Circumference of large pizza = 19*3.14
Circumference = 59.66 inches
Therefore,
There are 59.66 inches in the circumference of the large pizza.
Answer: 0.35
Step-by-step explanation:
3.325 divided by 9.5 = 0.35
Answer:
x=-2, y=-4. (-2, -4).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-y=0
y=x-2
------------
2x-(x-2)=0
2x-x+2=0
x+2=0
x=0-2
x=-2
y=-2-2=-4
