Answer is 4 = x. Write out The equation. Then converted to a polynomial. Then use the formula in the top upper right and then do the simple arithmetic to find a positive solution for X. it also makes logical sense as well, 3×4 is 12. I hope this helps and makes sense my Hand writing is not the Best
Answer:what are the answer choices
Step-by-step explanation:
X=12. you just have to Square root 144.
Answer: a. 30x^2 − 26x − 12
First write the equation in a form to better help visualize.
(5x - 6)(6x + 2)
Then use distributive property on the second binomial from the first binomial. <em>You multiply 5x by 6x and 2, then multiply -6 by 6x and 2.</em>
5x * 6x = 30x^2 (The answer is raised to the power of 2 because you're adding the invisible exponents, aka exponents of 1)
Then multiply 5x by 2
5x * 2 = 10x
Then you repeat the process but with -6 instead of 5x.
-6 * 6x = -36x (It is not raised to a power of 2 because -6 does not have a variable to include the invisible exponent)
-6 * 2 = -12
Now take all of your answers and put them into 1 equation by the order you did them.
30x^2 + 10x - 36x -12
But wait! The answer can still be simplified. All you have to do is combine like terms. <em>However 30x^2 can't be combined with 10x because 10x isn't raised to the second power, terms can only be combined if they have the same variable and exponent.</em>
30x^2 + (10x - 36x) - 12
30x^2 - 26x - 12
