\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -2 &,& -3~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 4 &,& 4~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{[4-(-2)]^2+[4-(-3)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(4+2)^2+(4+3)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{36+49}\implies \boxed{d=\sqrt{85}}\\\\

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -2 &,& -3~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 4 &,& 4~)
\end{array}\qquad
%   coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{ x_2 +  x_1}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{ y_2 +  y_1}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{4-2}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{4-3}{2} \right)\implies \left(\cfrac{2}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{1}{2}  \right)\implies \boxed{\left(1~,~\frac{1}{2}  \right)}

What is the complete factorization of the polynomial below? X3-4x^2+x-4
OLga [1]

Answer:  (x - 4)(x - (i))(x + (i))

Step-by-step explanation:

This factoring job lends itself well to synthetic division.  Looking at the constant term, -4, I came up with several possible roots based upon -4:  {±1, ±2, ±4}.  I chose +4 as my first trial root.  Sure enough, there was a zero remainder, which indicated that 4 is a root of this polynomial and (x - 4) is a factor.  The coefficients of the trinomial quotients are 1   0   1, which indicates a quotient of x^2 + 1, which has the following roots:  x = +(i) and x = -(i)

So the complete factorization of the polynomial is (x - 4)(x - (i))(x + (i)).

shawn drew a rectangle that was 2 units wide and 6 units long..draw a different rectangle that has the same perimeter but a diff
defon
2(2)+2(6)= 16, so the perimeter must be 16. Let’s make one of the side lengths l = 3, so 2(3)+2(w)= 16, or w = 5. You can check by multiplying the dimensions that the areas are different.
