Find a factor of 3x^2- 16x - 12

Greeley [361]

Answer:

x= -2/3 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x²-16x-12

3x²-18x+2x-12

(3x²-18x)+(2x-12)

3x(x-6)+2(x-6)

(3x+2)(x-6)

x= -2/3 and 6

If the areas of the given pairs of shapes are equal, find the value of x.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

$x = 8cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a square and rectangle.we want to figure out x which is the width of the rectangle. we are also given a condition i.e

the area of the square equal to the area of the rectangle

therefore,

$\displaystyle \rm A _{square } = A _{rect}$

recall the formula of the area of square and rectangle so,

$\displaystyle {s}^{2} = lw$

now assign variables

$s \implies16cm$
$l \implies32cm$
$w \implies x$

thus substitute:

$\displaystyle 32cmx = {16cm}^{2}$

simplify square:

$\displaystyle 32cmx = 256cm^2$

divide both sides by 32:

$\displaystyle \boxed{x = 8cm}$

and we're done!

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 10 14

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

9.8 units

Explanation:

According to Pythagoras theorem, the square of length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of lengths of other two sides.

Let the third side be x units.

Then,

x² + 10² = 14²

=> x² + 100 = 196

=> x² = 196 - 100

=> x² = 96

=> x = √96

=> x = 4√6

=> x = 9.79....

=> x = 9.8 (Rounding to the nearest tenths)

So, the length of the third side is 9.8 units.

What is the most precise name for a quadrilateral with the following vertices:

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(2,3) B(7,2) C(6,-1) D(1,0)

Plot the quadrilateral'

using a graphing tool

The quadrilateral ABCD in the attached figure

Verify the length of the sides

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find distance AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(2-3)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(5)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 2

Find distance BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 3

Find distance CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0+1)^{2}+(1-6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}$

$d_C_D=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 4

Find distance AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_D=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 5

Compare the length sides

AB=CD

BC=AD

Opposite sides are congruent

<em>Verify the slope of the sides</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find slope AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-3}{7-2}$

$m=\frac{-1}{5}$

$m_A_B=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 2

Find slope BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$m=\frac{-1-2}{6-7}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_B_C=3$

step 3

Find slope CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0+1}{1-6}$

$m=\frac{1}{-5}$

$m_C_D=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 4

Find slope AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0-3}{1-2}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_A_D=3$

step 5

Compare the slopes

$m_A_B=m_C_D$

$m_B_C=m_A_D$

The slope of the opposite sides are equal, that means, opposite sides are parallel

The slopes of consecutive sides are not opposite reciprocal, that means, consecutive sides are not perpendicular

therefore

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram
