Both students are correct because polynomials can be grouped in different ways to factor. Both ways result in a common binomial factor between the groups. Using the distributive property , this common binomial term can be factored out. Each grouping results in the same two binomial factors.
Answer:
p=12
Step-by-step explanation:
the expression 3(12+n) = 3(n+p) is equivalent only when p=12
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x+2)² - (2x)² = 44
4x^2 + 8x + 4 - 4x^2 = 44
8x + 4 = 44
8x = 44 - 4
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5
Answer:
radius = 5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
leg lengths of 6 and 8
AC = 6
BC = 8
Notice that since AB = diameter of circle and that C is inscribed in circle O
angle C = 90 degrees
triangle ABC is a right triangle
(AB )^2 = (AC)^2 + (BC)^2 by Pythagorean theorem
so
(AB)^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 = 36 + 64 = 100
AB = square root of 100 = 10
so AO = (1/2) *AB = (1/2)*10 = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 1
=3x + 1
this is because a variable X is attached to the 3 so it makes the 3x and the 1 unlike
therefore you can not add them.
