Y square - y - 20 (factorisation)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vera_Pavlovna [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(y - 5)(y + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y² - y - 20

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term (- 1)

The factors are - 5 and + 4, since

- 5 × 4 = - 20 and - 5 + 4 = - 1, thus

y² - y - 20 = (y - 5)(y + 4) ← in factored form

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

30 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

since the width is 4 centimeters more than 3/10 of the length, then 13 is 4 centimeters more than 3/10 of the length. 4 less than 13 is 9, so nine is 3/10 of the length. if 9 is 3/10, then 3 is 1/10 because 3/10 is three times 1/10. If 3 is 1/10, that means that 30 is the length because 1/10 multiplied by 10 is 10 tenths, or 1.
