2x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
a) The GCF is 2x
2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0
What multiplies to negative six and adds to negative 1?
Negative 3 and positive 2.
2(x-3)(x+2) = 0
Solutions:
3, -2
No it doesn't because no matter what number you choose as the base you will still be adding the same numbers.
B. 9^2
explanation: 3^4 is equivalent to 3*3*3*3, which is 81
9^2 (9*9) also equals 81
5 is A, because it's the only number that is whole when square rooted.
6 is confusing because it only gives you one number per answer, unless you are to add the two distances together? Then it would be 7 because X's distance is +4 and Y's distance is +3
I do not have an answer for 7
8 is 3.7 (or C)
9 is an easy one. Find out what the L and W is, and since it's a square we only need to find one of them. We square root the area and we are given 14.96662955, if rounded we get 15. So the answer is A
10 I don't understand the "estimate" for a square root number, I was not taught that.
