Answer:
(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
actor the following:
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:
(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16
The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)
x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):
(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)
x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:
(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):
Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The amplitude (A) and the mean (M) temperature are given by:

The mean temperature, 45 degrees. occurs at midnight (t=0) and the frequency is f=24h. Therefore, the temperature D, in degrees, as a function of t, in hours, is:

Step-by-step explanation:
Very quick and effortless example of vertical angles in the attached image. When 2 straight lines intersect, the 2 angles opposite each other at that point are vertical angles, and they are always congruent.
I'd say it's the 3rd option:
"Vertical angles are a pair of non-adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines."
but any of the first three could be technically true really. Adjacent angles are 2 angles that share a side, and vertical angles cannot share one.
solve this answer by using substitution. set the first equation to x=-y+4 then substitute -y+4 for x in the second equation.
2(-y+4) + 3y=0
-2y+8 + 3y=0
y+8=0
y=-8
now use -8 and solve for x
x+(-8)=4
x=12
