Factor x^2-5x-24 i need help to figure this out
Mrac [35]

Answer:

(x-8)(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find out what are the factors of the constant?

2) Which of those add to equal the coefficient before the x value?

In this particular equation, we have the constant being 24. The first two factors that come to mind are 6 and 4, and 8 and 3. Since it is -24, we need one of these numbers to be negative.

Let's look at our "b" value, or the coefficient behind the x value, 5. Looking at our factors and thinking of addition (since one of them must be negative, it will most likely be subtraction instead of addition) I can see that

8+ −3=5

which is one of the factors of -24.

This means that we can factor our equation using these numbers, getting us the following:

(x−3)(x+8)

Hope this helped!

What is 144/36 simplified?
NARA [144]
144/36 in lowest terms is 4.


To show my work, here.


1. Find the GCF of 144 and 36 so now we divide (144/36 = 4 and 36/36 is 1)

2. Now we have 4/1 so we simplify again so divide 4/1 and its 4

How do you decide which operations to use when you are solving a problem? Give an example.
deff fn [24]
It really depends on what kind of problem. like if you are doing a word problem or whatever than you should read the question a couple times, underline key words, DECIDE which operation to use, refer to the question and see if it makes sense. Hope I helped :)

Let A and B be two sets. For each of the following equalities, say whether the quality is always true, never true, or sometimes
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete below is the missing parts

(a) A\ (A\B) = B\(B\A)

(b) A\ (BA) = B\(A\B)

answer : A\ (A\B) = B\(B\A) = always true

               A\ (BA) = B\(A\B) = sometimes true and sometimes false

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A\ (A\B) = B\(B\A). = ALWAYS TRUE

using de Morgan's law to prove this

A\ (A\B) = A\ ( A ∩ B^c )

             = A ∩ ( A^C ∪ B )

             = ( A ∩ A^C ) ∪ ( A ∩ B )

             = Ф ∪ ( A ∩ B )

             = ( A ∩ B )

ALSO : B\(B\A) = attached below is the remaining parts of the solution

B) A\ (BA) = B\(A\B) = Sometimes true and sometimes false

attached below is the prove using De Morgan's law
