Answer:

6x(3x + 1)(x - 7) .

Step-by-step explanation:

First look for the greatest common factor of the 3 terms.

It is 6x, so

18x^3 – 120x^2 – 42x

= 6x(3x^2 - 20x - 7)

Now we look to factor the quadratic expression in the parentheses:

Use the 'ac' method:

The first and last coefficients are multiplied

3 * -7 = -21.

We look for 2 numbers whose product is -21 and whose sum is -20:

They are -21 and + 1 , so we write:

6x(3x^2 - 21x + 1x - 7)

= 6x [ (3x(x - 7) + 1(x - 7)]    Note that x - 7 is common, so:

= 6x(3x + 1)(x - 7)  Answer

madreJ [45]

A consistent system of equations is a system with intersecting lines and lines that have the same equation.

A consistent system is the system of equations with at least one solution or infinite number of solutions.

So , the intersecting lines will always have a solution and the lines with the same equation will have infinite number of solution.

The graph of a system of equations with different slopes will have no solutions. Correct option in "Never"

If the system of equations have different slopes then the equations are not parallel, hence the equations will always have a solution.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let sum of zeros=s

and product of zeros=p

then quadratic equation is x²-sx+p=0

x²-(-1/2)x+(-3)=0

x²+1/2 x-3=0
