2 answers:
Answer:
A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
To factor the given expression completely.
Solution:
In order to factor the expression, we will factor in pairs.
We will factor the G.C.F of the terms in the pairs.
G.C.F. of and
can be given as:
Thus, G.C.F. =
G.C.F. of and
can be given as:
Thus, G.C.F. =
The expression after factoring the G.C.F. pairs is given as:
Taking G.C.F. of the whole expression as is a common term.
The expression is completely factored.

Based on the calculations, the depth of tent is equal to 12 feet.
<h3>How to calculate the depth of the tent?</h3>Based on the diagram (see attachment) and information provided, we can logically deduce the following parameters (points):
- Triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle (AB = AC).
- The front and back of the triangle are identical triangles.
- Side AD is perpendicular side BC.
- CD is the midpoint of BC i.e CD = BC/2 = 6/2 = 3 feet.
Next, we would determine the height of the right-angled triangle (ADC) by applying Pythagorean theorem:
AC² = AD² + DC²
AD² = AC² - DC²
AD² = 5² - 3²
AD² = 25 - 9
AD² = 16
AD = √16
AD = 4 feet.
Also, we would determine the area of the triangle (ABC):
Area = 1/2 × b × h
<u>Where:</u>
- b is the base area.
- h is the height.
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
Area = 1/2 × 6 × 4
Area = 12 feet².
Depth of tent = 3 × height of ADC
Depth of tent = 3 × 4
Depth of tent = 12 feet.
