4p^2 + 4p - 5
As the expression cannot be factored in it's current form, we need to check if splitting the middle term is possible.
<em><u>List factors of -20.</u></em>
-5 * 4
5 * -4
-10 * 2
10 * -2
-20 * 1
20 * -1
<u>None of the factors added together result in positive 4.</u>
Because splitting the middle term is not possible, and we cannot simplify this expression any further:
This expression cannot be fully factored.
Step-by-step explanation:
6. 7x + 7y = -11
7. -1x + 8y = 12
8. 9x + 11y = -7
Answer:
x = -16 or x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the roots of a polynomial function, set the polynomial equal to zero and solve for x.
x² + 10x - 96 = 0
We need to factor the left side. The left side is a quadratic polynomial whose first coefficient is 1. We need two numbers whose product is -96 and whose sum is 10. The numbers are 16 and -6.
(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0
If a product of two factors equals zero, then one factor or the other or both must equal zero.
x + 16 = 0 or x - 6 = 0
x = -16 or x = 6
Answer:
the answer is 2.9 x 10^0 and 3.2 x 10^-2
Step-by-step explanation:
10^0 is equal to 1 so 2.9 x 10^0 is really 2.9 times 1 which is less than 3
if i could get brainliest answer that would be great!
10^-2 is a exponential that makes a number go down so 3.2 going down is less than 3
