Given
h(x) = f(x)·g(x) = -x² -3x +4
Find
Possible equations for f(x) and g(x)
Solution
h(x) factors as -(x -4)(x +1)
There are an infinite number of possibilities for f(x) and g(x). Some of the simpler ones are ...
f(x) = 4 -x; g(x) = x +1
or
f(x) = -x -1; g(x) = x -4
or either of this with f and g swapped.
For some q(x), you can also have ...
f(x) = (4 -x)×q(x); g(x) = (x +1)/q(x)
again, possibly with f and g swapped
It is the third one that is the answer
The list of numbers from least to greatest is
3/10 , 3/7, 3/6
This is because the numerator stays the same across all three of these fractions. However, the denominator is changing, and this proves to be a large difference.
Think about it this way: If you cut a pie into ten pieces, then those slices are going to be smaller than if you cut the pie into seven or six pieces.
