Answer:

C. (4y - 1)(3y + 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

12y^2 + 5y - 2

Use the ac method.

a = 12 ( the leading coefficient) and c = -2 (the constant last term).

a * c = -24.

We need 2 numbers whose product is c (-2) and whose sum is +5 (the coefficient of y).

They are + 8 and -3, So we write the original expression as:

12y^2 - 3y + 8y - 2 Now we factor this by grouping:

= 3y(4y - 1) + 2(4y - 1) The 4y - 1 is common so:

= (4y - 1)(3y + 2).

A triangle has side lengths measuring 2x + 2 ft, x + 3 ft, and n ft.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

The correct option is A. x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle sum of any two sides is always greater than the third side.

Now, the sides of the triangle are given to be :

2x + 2, x + 3 , n

Now, first take 2x + 2 and x + 3 as two sides and the side of length n as third side.

By using the property that sum of two sides is always greater than the third side in a triangle.

⇒ 2x + 2 + x + 3 > n

⇒ 3x + 5 > n ......(1)

Now, take n and x + 3 as two sides and the side of length 2x + 2 as the third side of triangle.

So, by the property, we have :

n + x + 3 > 2x + 2

⇒ n > x - 1 ...........(2)

From both the equations (1) and (2) , We get :

x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Therefore, The correct option is A. x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Find the equation of the line that passes through point (7,5) and (-9,5)

Papessa [141]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 5)

m = $\frac{5-5}{-9-7}$ = $\frac{0}{-16}$ = 0

This means the line is horizontal and parallel to the x- axis with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (7, 5) and (- 9, 5) with y- coordinates 5, thus

y = 5 ← equation of line
