3u³ - 4u² - 9u + 12
u²(3u) - u²(4) - 3(3u) + 3(4)
u²(3u - 4) - 3(3u - 4)
(u² - 3)(3u - 4)

Select all of the following that are quadratic equations.

kifflom [539]

A quadratic equation is one in which the highest exponent of x is 2.
$7x^2+14x=0$ is quadratic; the highest exponent is 2.
x³-3x²+1=0 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 3, not 2.
5x-7=0 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²+3x-5=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.
x-5=9x+7 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²-x=3x+7 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.

I don't understand what the question is asking?

lana66690 [7]

OK for this question you need to find out how many more post are needed. If you look at the diagram it shows that one side is 50 feet. Now there are two sides that will need post, because the barn side need no more. Now if there are two side both 50 feet, and you need a post every ten feet. How many posts are needed?

A rectangle has perimeter, P, length, land width, w. Which of the following represents lin

almond37 [142]

Answer:

$l=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of it's side lengths.

A rectangle has 4 sides where it's opposite sides are congruent.

So if one side has measurement w, then there is another side that has measurement w.

If there is one side that has measurement l, then there is another side that has measurement l.

So if you add w+w+l+l you get 2w+2l.

They are giving us that the perimeter is P, so P=2w+2l.

we are being asking to solve for l.

P=2w+2l

First step: Isolate term that contains the l, so get 2l by itself first.

We are going to subtract 2w on both sides giving us:

P-2w=2l

2l=P-2w

Now that we have 2l by itself it is time to perform the last step in getting l by itself.

Second step: Divide both sides by 2.

This gives us:

l=(P-2w)/2

You may separate the fraction like so:

$l=\frac{P-2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-\frac{2w}{2}=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

I don't know your options but I have solve for l in terms of P and w

and got $l=\frac{P}{2}-w$ .

Please let me know if you have further questions with this problem.

Expand 4(2x-3)<br> Factorise 5n +15

Monica [59]

For the first it should be 8x-12
And the second you would divide both by 5 and end up with n+5
