Hi there!
We are given the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0, and we are told to solve it. Well, we can first take all the factors of 12 -
1 12
2 6
3  4
Now, take the sum of each factor pair -
1, 12 = 13
2, 6 = 8
3, 4 = 7
Find which factor pair adds up to 7, and we can see that 3 and 4 add up to seven, while also having a product of 12. Therefore, since the whole equation has addition signs, we can factor the equation w² + 7w + 12 into (w + 3)(w + 4) = 0. Next, using the Zero Product Property, we can set each term to zero.
w + 3 = 0
w = -3

w + 4 = 0
w = -4
Therefore, the solution to the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0 is w = -3, -4. Hope this helped and have a great day!

Please help me on this algebra 1 question, i dont understand it
Y_Kistochka [10]

I believe the answer they're looking for is 3, but it's hard to tell, because there's a negative sign before the box, and a polynomial cannot contain a negative exponent.

Ignoring that sign though, the answer should be 3 because Polynomials typically have a term with each degree up to the maximum of the polynomial.

In this polynomial, there is a term with degree 4, degree 2,  and degree 0, but none for degree 3 or 1. Because of this, the only acceptable answer is 3.

The radius of the circle is 7 inches what is the approximate length of AB (AB is 135 degrees
Sholpan [36]
We know that
circumference=2*pi*r
for r=7 in
circumference=2*pi*7------> 14*pi in

if 360° (full circle)  has a length of------------ 14*pi in
 135°-----------------------------> x
x=135*14*pi/360----------> x=5.25*pi in--------> 16.49 in

the answer is
5.25*pi in  or 16.49 in

A driveway has an area of 96 square feet. The width of the driveway is 8 feet.
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A driveway is rectangular in shape.

Therefore we can calculate the area using the formula;

A = L \times W

From the question;

The area,A=96 feet square

The width, W=8 feet

We substitute this values into the formula to find the length, L.

This implies that

96 =L \times 8

Dividing through by 8.

\implies \frac{96}{8}= \frac{L \times 8}{8}

\implies L = 12

Hence,the length of the driveway is 12 feet.
