<span> Use the rational root theorem to find the possible rational roots. The rational roots theorem says that possible rational roots are +/- factors the constant term (36 here) divided by factors of the leading coefficient (1 here). Possible rational roots are
+/- 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 12, 18, 36
Test each zero using the rational root test. To do this, use synthetic division to test the roots. I won't show the work here, but the roots that work are -2 and -3. As factors, this is x+2 and x+3.
From the synthetic division, we have x^2-4x+6 left over, which is irreducible.
In factored form:
f(x) = (x+2)(x+3)(x^-4x+6)
You could also use a graphing calculator to find the roots and work backwards to get the factored form too. A TI-89 Titanium would factor the polynomial and give you the above answer.</span>
There are 8 black socks and 20 white socks. 5 socks times 4 = 20 white socks, and 2 socks times 4 = 8 black socks. So, Pa has 8 black socks.
Answer:
(x-4)(x-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
By factorization, x^2-10x+24 can be written in the form (x-4)(x-6). Thus the roots of the quadratic equation are x= 4 and 6 respectively.
Answer:
A
explanation:
if you substitute the values into the equation they are all correct.
So
C=10
3c+c/2c means
3(10)+10/2(10)
30+10/20
40/20=2
