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 perimeter of the triangle at the right is 22.6 in. What is the value of n?
blagie [28]

Answer:

A. 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is just the sum of all of the side lengths. The sides of this triangle are n inches, (n + 5.2) inches, and (2n + 3.4) inches.

So, your equation is n + n + 5.2 + 2n + 3.4 = 22.6 inches.

You can combine like terms (adding together all of the n's and all of the numbers) to simplify your equation to 4n + 8.6 = 22.6 inches.

Subtract 8.6 from both sides of the equation to get 4n = 14, and divide both sides by 4 to get n = 3.5.

Hope this helps! :)
