Factor the polynomial. 13x² – 20x – 12

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

(13 x + 6) (x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

13 x^2 - 20 x - 12

Factor the quadratic 13 x^2 - 20 x - 12. The coefficient of x^2 is 13 and the constant term is -12. The product of 13 and -12 is -156. The factors of -156 which sum to -20 are 6 and -26. So 13 x^2 - 20 x - 12 = 13 x^2 - 26 x + 6 x - 12 = x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6):

x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6)

Factor 13 x + 6 from x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6):

Answer: (13 x + 6) (x - 2)

What is the exact value of the expression the square root of 20. + the square root of 24. - the square root 54.? simplify if pos
aksik [14]
\sqrt{20} =  \sqrt{4}  \sqrt{5}  = 2 \sqrt{5}
\sqrt{24} =  \sqrt{4} \sqrt{6} = 2 \sqrt{6}
\sqrt{54} =  \sqrt{9} \sqrt{6} = 3 \sqrt{6}

Because you can only add and subtract radicals with the same radicand,
you get 2\sqrt{5} -  \sqrt{6}
that is the simplified answer but if you want it in decimals, 2.022 is what you get.

I need help on solving these types of geometry problems! Teacher said the answer is 7 but I have to show work. Thank you!
Nikolay [14]

The vertex where the two triangles touch forms a pair of vertical angles, so that the angles on opposites sides of the vertex are congruent. You're shown that two legs of both triangles are congruent. All this tells you that the two triangles are isosceles, and furthermore that they are similar because of the congruence of their "base" angles.

This means

82^\circ=m\angle 2

\implies82=10x+12

\implies10x=70

\implies\boxed{x=7}
