Factoring , a² +4a - 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
givi [52]2 years ago
6 0

the factors of the term a^2+4a-5 are (a-1)(a+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find factors of the term: a^2+4a-5

For finding factors:

We need to break the middle term such that their product is equal to product of first and last term and their sum is equal to middle term

Breaking the middle term and finding factors:

a^2+4a-5

=a^2+5a-a-5

=a(a+5)-1(a+5)

=(a-1)(a+5)

So, the factors of the term a^2+4a-5 are (a-1)(a+5)

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with
12345 [234]

Answer:

x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (-6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

equation of a parabola in vertex form:  y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex

Substituting the given vertex (-3, -18) into the equation:

y = a(x + 3)² - 18

If the y-intercept is (0, 0) then substitute x=0 and y=0 into the equation and solve for a:

0 = a(0 + 3)² - 18

⇒ 0 = a(3)² - 18

⇒ 0 = 9a - 18

⇒ 9a = 18

⇒ a = 2

Therefore, y = 2(x + 3)² - 18

To find the x-intercepts, set the equation to 0 and solve for x:

                                 2(x + 3)² - 18 = 0

Add 18 to both sides:     2(x + 3)² = 18

Divide both sides by 2:    (x + 3)² = 9

Square root both sides:      x + 3 = ±3

Subtract 3 from both sides:  x = ±3 - 3

so x = 3 - 3 = 0  

and  x = -3 - 3 = -6

So x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (-6, 0)
