How to factor x^2-2x-15

Mathematics
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(x - 5)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 2x - 15

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 2)

The factors are - 5 and + 3, since

- 5 × 3 = - 15 and - 5 + 3 = - 2, thus

(x - 5)(x + 3) ← in factored form

The Total Surface Area for the shape below is _________. (round to nearest tenth.)
gavmur [86]

Answer:

=193.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Figure out the triangles first
  • Area= Base times Height divided by 2
  • first figure out one triangle A= (6)(5.2)/2 = 15.6 (brackets means times and the slash means divide
  • times it by 2 so you get the area of both triangles (15.6)(2)= 31.2
  • Now figure out the rectangles
  • Area= Base times Height
  • A=(6)(9) = 54
  • Then times it by 3 to get the area of all three triangles
  • (54)(3)= 162
  • Now add 162 and 31.2 and you get 193.2 cm
