Answer:

x = 6, x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = x² - 36

To find the zeros let y = 0, that is

x² - 36 = 0 ← x² - 36 is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b), thus

x² - 36 = 0

x² - 6² = 0

(x - 6)(x + 6) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = - 6

Find the radical equivalent of 27^2/3 and compute it.<br> please help i'm taking a test.
AveGali [126]
Note that (a^b)^c=a^(bc) so in this case we have:

(27^(1/3))^2  the cube root of 27=±3

(±3)^2  and ±3^2=9

So the equivalent expression is 9  or if you need an exponent 9^1 :)

I am assuming that you meant 27^(2/3)

What constant term is necessary to complete the perfect square trinomial pictured in the algebra tiles?
gayaneshka [121]
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).


Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).


That is (x + 4)^2.


Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.


(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.


That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.

Answer:

4\frac{3}{8} yards of wood

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is Hakim is making birdhouses. Each birdhouse uses  7 /8 yard of wood. What is the total length of wood Hakim will need to build 5 birdhouses?

Answer: Given that the amount of wood need to produce one bird house is 7/8 yard, for 5 birdhouse, the amount of wood needed would be 5 times the number needed for one birdhouse. It is given by:

Amount of wood needed for 5 birdhouse = 5 × amount of wood for 1 birdhouse

Amount of wood needed for 5 birdhouse = 5 × 7/8 yards = 35/8 = 4\frac{3}{8} yards of wood
