How do you factor completely x square+5x-6

You find two numbers that add up to the  5  and multiply to the  -6 .

It looks like  6  and  -1  can do the job ...

              adding:           6 + (-1)  =  5
              multiplying:     6 x (-1)  =  -6 .

See ? OK.  So now, the factors of the expression are

     ==>  (x plus one of the numbers)
and
     ==>  (x plus the other number).

           (x + 6) (x - 1)  =  x² + 5x - 6

I'm assuming the "squared" is x^2+5x-6 in which case the answer is (x+6)(x-1)

Find the slope of the line that passes through (3, 11) and (10, 6).
igomit [66]

Answer:

-5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

remember slope is eqaul to rise over run.

6-11 = -5 so it rose down by 5 units

10 - 3 = 7 so it ran 7 units

thus

slope= -5/7

3x+y=115x-y=21 Directions: Solve each system of equations by elimination. Clearly identify your solution.
olchik [2.2K]

To solve, we will follow the steps below:

3x+y=11 --------------------------(1)



5x-y=21 ------------------------------(2)

since y have the same coefficient, we can eliminate it directly by adding equation (1) and (2)

adding equation (1) and (2) will result;

8x =32

divide both-side of the equation by 8

x = 4

We move on to eliminate x and then solve for y

To eliminate x, we have to make sure the coefficient of the two equations are the same.

We can achieve this by multiplying through equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3

The result will be;

15x + 5y = 55 ----------------------------(3)

15x - 3y =63 --------------------------------(4)

subtract equation (4) from equation(3)

8y = -8

divide both-side of the equation by 8

y = -1

How do you work this problem
ankoles [38]
 An easy way is to do it, if you get confused by multiplying fractions, is by turning the fractions into decimals. Since you are trying to find N you want to multiply the 1/5 by the 1/3.

1/5 = 0.2

1/3 = 0.33333333333333333333333333333333

 if you multiply those you get 0.06666666666666666666666666666667 which when put into a fraction it equals 1/15



but if you don't want to do that just try to remember that you want to get by itself. and when multiplying fractions in this situation the bottom numbers only matter.. so 5 x 3 = 15  1/15

would you like me to put it in a document to show you?
