Answer:

  (x -8)(x +3) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When a quadratic has the factorization

  (x +a)(x +b) = 0

It expands to

  x² +(a+b)x +ab = 0

When you compare this expansion to the given quadratic, you find that the numbers "a" and "b" must satisfy the requirements ...

  a+b = -5 . . . . . . the coefficient of the x term

  ab = -24 . . . . . . the constant term

Another way to say this is that <em>you want to find two factors of -24 that have a sum of -5</em>.

___

At this point, you make use of your knowledge of signed numbers and of multiplication tables. You know that for the <em>product</em> of two numbers to be negative, exactly one of them must be negative. In order for the <em>sum</em> to be negative, the factor with the largest magnitude must be negative.

Here are the ways -24 can be factored with the largest (magnitude) factor negative:

  -24 = -24×1 = -12×2 = -8×3 = -6×4

The sums of the factors in these factor pairs are -23, -10, -5, -2. The one we're interested in is -8×3 with a sum of (-8 +3) = -5.

It does not matter which number (-8 or 3) is assigned to a or to b. It only matters that we now know the factored equation is ...

  (x -8)(x +3) = 0

Answer: 35 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation: HF and GH are congruent to each other. That means angle F and angle G are the same as well (since those are the angles opposite the sides). If angle G is 35, angle f is also 35.

Which number rounds to 15,700,000 when rounded to the nearest hundred thousand?. A) 15,000,000. B) 15,579,999. C) 15,649,999. D)
Artyom0805 [142]
<span>The correct answer is option D. i.e. 15,659,999. Now, this number is closest to the given number i.e. 15,700,000. Becuase when 659 is rounded to the nearest number of hiher value then its value will be 700. Thus,15,659, 999 rounds to 15,700,000 when rounded to the nearest hundred thousand.</span>

The graph of which function has an axis of symmetry at x = 3?
babunello [35]

Answer:

The function in the fourth option will have an axis of symmetry at x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to choose the function from options, the graph of which has an axis of symmetry at x = 3.

The function in the fourth option will have an axis of symmetry at x = 3.

It is f(x) = x2 – 6x – 1 On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up. It goes through (0, negative 1), has a vertex at (3, negative 10), and goes through (6, 0). (Answer)
