Answer:

x=2

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

This seems like factorisation

X^2-5x+6

To factorise, you will look for two numbers that when multiplied together it will give 6 and when added it will give -5

Back to the question, the two numbers that can be used to multiple 6 and when added it will gives -5 is -3×-2

x^2-3x-2x+6

x(x-3)-2(x-3)

(x-3)(x-2)

Which can be solved further,

(x-3)=0

Add 3 to both sides

x=3

(x-2)=0

Add 2 to both sides

x=2

What is 13i⋅(1−5i)? like i have no idea

madam [21]

Answer:

65 + 13i

Step-by-step explanation:

reminder that i² = - 1

13i(1 - 5i) ← multiply each term in the parenthesis by 13i

= 13i - 65i²

= 13i - 65(- 1)

= 13i + 65

= 65 + 13i ← in standard form

ASAP Please help

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The center is at ( (-1, -2) and the radius is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2 + 2X + Y^2 + 4Y = 20

Complete the square on the x and y terms.

(x + 1)^2 -1 + (y + 2)^2 - 4 = 20

(x + 1)^2 + ( y + 2)^2 = 25 Comparing this with the standard form:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

- the center is at ( (-1, -2) and thr radius is 5.

The point (-12,12) is on the graph of y=f(x). Find the corresponding point on the graph of y=g(x) where g(x)= 1/3f(x)

Andru [333]

the corresponding point on the graph of $y = f(x)$ where $g(x) = \frac{1}{3(f(x))}$ is $(-12,\frac{1}{36})$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , The point (-12,12) is on the graph of y=f(x). We need to Find the corresponding point on the graph of y=g(x) where g(x)= 1/3f(x) . Let's find out:

On function $y = f(x)$ , a point $p(-12,12)$ lies . Another function $g(x) = \frac{1}{3(f(x))}$ .

According to question , as On function $y = f(x)$ , a point $p(-12,12)$ lies :

⇒ $12= f(-12)$

Now, Putting x = -12 in function $g(x) = \frac{1}{3(f(x))}$ we get:

⇒ $g(x) = \frac{1}{3(f(x))}$

⇒ $y=g(-12) = \frac{1}{3(f(-12))}$ { $12= f(-12)$ }

⇒ $y= \frac{1}{3(12)}$

⇒ $y= \frac{1}{36}$

Therefore, the corresponding point on the graph of $y = f(x)$ where $g(x) = \frac{1}{3(f(x))}$ is $(-12,\frac{1}{36})$ .
