Answer:

x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given

3x³ - 12x ← factor out 3x from each term

= 3x(x² - 4) ← x² - 4 is a difference of squares, hence

= 3x(x - 2)(x + 2) ← fully factorised

hence x + 2 is a factor of the polynomial

Answer:

x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^3 - 12x

=3x(x^2 - 4)

= 3x(x + 2)(x - 2)

so (x+2), (x - 2) and 3x are the factors of 3x^3 - 12x

answer:

x + 2

Find the slope of the line that passes through the two given points (-4,3) and (-8,6)

klemol [59]

The slope of the line that passes throught (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given

(-4,3) and (-8,6)
slop=(6-3)/(-8-(-4))=(3)/(-8+4)=3/-4=-3/4

slope is -3/4

Find two rational expressions a / b and c / d that produce the result x − 1 / x2 when using the following operations. Answers

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

a) Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{-1}{x^2}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}$ .

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d}=\frac{-1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{-x+x^2}{x^3}=\frac{x(x-1)}{xx^2}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x^2}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}-\frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x^2}=\frac{x^2-x}{x^3}=\frac{x(x-1)}{xx^2}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{x-1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}*\frac{c}{d}=\frac{x-1}{x}*\frac{1}{x}=\frac{(x-1)1}{x*x}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{x-1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{x}{1}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}\div\frac{c}{d}=\frac{x-1}{x}\div\frac{x}{1}=\frac{x-1}{x}*\frac{1}{x}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$
