How do you do factor x²-49?

1 answer:

Allisa [31]3 years ago

Answer:

(x-7)*(x+7)

Step-by-step explanation:

49 can be factored as 7*7 = 7^2

x^2 - 49

= x^2 - 7^2

You also learned that a^2 - b^2 = (a-b) * (a+b), so in this case:

x^2 - 7^2 = (x-7) * (x+7)

So x^2 - 49 factored to become (x-7)*(x+7)

Hope this help you :3

Margaret used 12 gallons of gas to drive 252 miles. How many miles can Margaret drive with 16 gallons of gas?

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

336

Step-by-step explanation:

if she can drive 252 miles with 12 gallons, you must divide 252 and 12 to figure out how many miles she can get per gallon. Once you find that answer, you multiply that by 16 gallons.

D) A shopkeeper bought two radios for Rs 6,000. He sold one of them at a profit of 20℅

Orlov [11]

Answer:

2400 and 3600

Step-by-step explanation:

Radio 1 cost = x

Radio 2 cost= 6000- x

x*1.2+(6000-x)*0.9= 6000*1.02
1.2x-0.9x+5400=6120
0.3x= 6120-5400
0.3x= 720
x=720/0.3
x= 2400
6000- x= 3600

What is the most precise name for a quadrilateral with the following vertices:

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(2,3) B(7,2) C(6,-1) D(1,0)

Plot the quadrilateral'

using a graphing tool

The quadrilateral ABCD in the attached figure

Verify the length of the sides

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find distance AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(2-3)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(5)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 2

Find distance BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 3

Find distance CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0+1)^{2}+(1-6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}$

$d_C_D=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 4

Find distance AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_D=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 5

Compare the length sides

AB=CD

BC=AD

Opposite sides are congruent

<em>Verify the slope of the sides</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find slope AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-3}{7-2}$

$m=\frac{-1}{5}$

$m_A_B=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 2

Find slope BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$m=\frac{-1-2}{6-7}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_B_C=3$

step 3

Find slope CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0+1}{1-6}$

$m=\frac{1}{-5}$

$m_C_D=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 4

Find slope AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0-3}{1-2}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_A_D=3$

step 5

Compare the slopes

$m_A_B=m_C_D$

$m_B_C=m_A_D$

The slope of the opposite sides are equal, that means, opposite sides are parallel

The slopes of consecutive sides are not opposite reciprocal, that means, consecutive sides are not perpendicular

therefore

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram
