To factor 6x^2 - 12x - 18, the absolute first thing you must do is to factor out any common factor from all three terms. In this case it is 6:

6x^2 - 12x - 18 = 6(x^2 - 2x - 3)

Now you must consider the factors of 1, the coefficient of the first term in the trinomial, and -3 the last term in the trinomial. 
1 = 1 x 1
-3 = 1 x -3, -1 x 3
Factoring is a guess and check procedure, but with time and practice it can come both easier and quicker. To factor you must find a combination of factors whose middle term will equal -2 when foiled. 

In this case it is: (x + 1)(x - 3)
the combinations were 1x1 and 1x-3.

Final Answer: A. 6(x+1)(x-3)

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length. The length of the third side is three meters less than the sum of the lengths of th
strojnjashka [21]
We have an isosceles triangle: 
The length of the sides are:
side₁=side₂=x
side₃=(x+x)-3=2x-3
Perimeter of a triangle=is the sum of the all sides.

we have this equation:
x+x+(2x-3)=29
4x=29+3
4x=32
x=32/4
x=8

The length of the third triangle will be: 2x-3=2*8-3=16-3=13

Answer: The length of the longest side of the triangle would be 13 meters.

A line is passing through (7,-3) and it’s slope is -1/2, white the equation in point slope form
Crank

Equation of the line in point slope form is y + 3 = -1/2(x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given slope of the line is -1/2 and passes through the point (x1, y1) = (7, -3). Equation in point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

⇒ y - (-3) = -1/2(x - 7)

⇒ y + 3 = -1/2(x - 7)

A population of protozoa develops with a constant relative growth rate of 0.6137 per member per day. On day zero the population
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The population size after seven days will be 171.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of protozoa can be modeled by the following equation.

Q(t) = Q(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which Q(t) is the population after t days, Q(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate.

In this problem, we have that:

Q(0) = 6, r = 0.6137

So

Q(t) = 6(1.6137)^{t}

Find the population size after seven days.

This is Q(7).

Q(7) = 6(1.6137)^{7} = 171

The population size after seven days will be 171.
