Answer:
Y=5
You must first divide b (-10) by two and square it to know what you need to make a perfect square (25). You must then add or subtract the amount to make C (-13) into that number (add 38). Don't forget to do it on the other side too! (3 becomes 41) You then factor the left side. ((Y-5)^2=41) The result is your answer. (Y=5)
X ÷ 4 = 8
Multiply each side by 4
x = 32
He subtracted 4 from 12 and got 8
Answer:
P(x) = (x - 1)(x + 2)(x - 3)(3x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since P(1) = 0 and P(- 2) = 0, then
(x - 1) and (x + 2) are factors of P(x)
(x - 1)(x + 2) = x² + x - 2 ← is also a factor of P(x)
dividing 3
- 5x³ - 17x² + 13x + 6 by x² + x - 2 gives
P(x) = (x - 1)(x + 2)(3x² - 8x - 3) = (x - 1)(x + 2)(x - 3)(3x + 1)
