Answer:

2x(x - 6)(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x³ - 10x² - 12x ← factor out 2x from each term

= 2x(x² - 5x - 6)

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 6 and + 1, since

- 6 × 1 = - 6 and - 6 + 1 = - 5, thus

x² - 5x - 6 = (x - 6)(x + 1) and

2x³ - 10x² - 12x = 2x(x - 6)(x + 1) ← in factored form

The equation $2x^{3} -10x^{2} -12x$ has 2 and x in common. This means you can factor both the 2 and x out of the equation like so...

2x( $x^{2} -5x-6$ )

Hope this helped!

Write the equation of the sphere in standard form. x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2x − 4y − 6z = 22

madam [21]

The equation $x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z=22$ in standard form looks like $(x+1)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} +(z-3)^{2} =(6)^{2}$ .

Given equation of sphere be $x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z=22$ .

We are required to express the given equation in the standard form of the equation of sphere.

Equation is basically relationship between two or more variables that are expressed in equal to form. Equation of two variables look like ax+by=c. It may be linear equation,quadratic equation, cubic equation or many more depending on the powers of variables. The standard form of the equation of sphere looks like $x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} =r^{2}$ .

The given equation is $x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z=22$ .

We have to break 22 which is in right side into various parts according to the left side of the equation.

$x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z=-1-4-9+36$

$x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z+1+4+9=36$

$x^{2} +1+2x+y^{2}+4-4y+z^{2} +9-6z=36$

$x^{2} +(1)^{2} +2*1*x+y^{2} +(2)^{2} -2*2y+z^{2} +(3)^{2} -2*3z=36$

$(x+1)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} +(z-3)^{2} =(6)^{2}$

Hence the equation $x^{2} +y^{2} +z^{2} +2x-4y-6z=22$ in standard form looks like $(x+1)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} +(z-3)^{2} =(6)^{2}$ .

Elanso [62]

Answer:

<h3>The option B) is correct.</h3><h3>That is the line that makes the sum of the squares of the vertical distances of the data points from the line (the sum of squared residuals) as small as possible is correct answer</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that " The least-squares regression line "

The least-squares regression line is <u>the line that makes the sum of the squares of the vertical distances of the data points from the line (the sum of squared residuals) as small as possible.</u>

Therefore option B) is correct
