P(x)=(x-2)(x-3)(x+7) find the constant term

1 answer:

5 0

Short method: multiply constants
$= ( - 2) \times ( - 3) \times (7) \\ = 6 \times 7 \\ = 42$

Long mothod: expand it
$= ( {x}^{2} - 5x + 6)(x + 7) \\ = ... \\ = ... + 42$

Answer: 42

Answer:

I think you need to find the angle of fde. which b and c look like 45 degree angles.and so does fde, if you know how to solve the problem now, I would do that, because everything there number wise was a VERY rough estimate.

How do u write 5(2x - 1) in a distributive property

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

5(2x-1) = 5(2x) - 5(1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property states that multiplying a sum or difference of two terms by a number is equal to multiplying the same number with each term of the sum or difference separately and then adding the products.

It can be written as:

a(b+c) = ab + ac

a(b-c) = ab - ac

So, for the given question,

=>5(2x-1) = 5(2x) - 5(1)

What is the slope of the line with an equation of 5x - 3y = -12

Hoochie [10]

Answer: $m=\frac{5}{3} =1.67$

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation: $5x-3y=-12$
Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation: $-3y=-5x-12$
Divide both sides of the equation by -1: $3y=5x+12$
Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get y on the left, leaving the equation in $y=mx+b$ form: $y=\frac{5}{3}x+4$
Evaluate. Slope is equal to m in this form, so the slope is $m=\frac{5}{3}$ .

Hope this helps!

Are rectangle or garden has a length of 10.25 feet and a width of 6.2 feet. Another rectangle or garden has a length of 20.5 fee

Alinara [238K]

Hello!

The formula for finding area of a rectangle is length × width

1st garden
l = 10.25
w = 6.2

6.2 × 10.25 = 63.55

Area = 63.55 ft²

2nd garden

l = 20.5
w = 12.4

20.5 × 12.4 = 254.2

Area = 254.2 ft²

Divide the bigger area by the smaller area

254.2 ÷ 63.55 = 4

$\framebox {4 times greater}$

A segment in the coordinate plane has an endpoint with coordinates (1,2) and midpoint with coordinates (4,3). What are the coord

Serga [27]

Answer:

(7,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint formula (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

Look at x and y for the endpoints separately

midpoint x value = ( 1 + x)/2

4= (1 + x)/2

8 = 1 + x

x = 7

midpoint y value = (2 + y)/2

3 = (2 + y)/2

6 = 2 + y

y = 4

endpoint (x,y) = (7,4)
