Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x² - 72x = 0 ← factor out 4 from each term
4(x² - 18x) = 0
To complete the square
add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 18x
4(x² + 2(- 9)x + 81 - 81) = 0
4(x - 9)² - 4(81) = 0
4(x - 9)² - 324 = 0 ( add 324 to both sides )
4(x - 9)² = 324 ( divide both sides by 4 )
(x - 9)² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 9 = ±
= ± 9 ( add 9 to both sides )
x = 9 ± 9
Then
x = 9 - 9 = 0
x = 9 + 9 = 18
Answer: No, x+3 is not a factor of 2x^2-2x-12
========================================================
Explanation:
Let p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
If we divide p(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is p(k). I'm using the remainder theorem. A special case of the remainder theorem is that if p(k) = 0, then x-k is a factor of p(x).
Compare x+3 = x-(-3) to x-k to find that k = -3.
Plug x = -3 into the function
p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
p(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - 2(-3) - 12
p(-3) = 12
We don't get 0 as a result so x+3 is not a factor of p(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - 12
----------------------------------------
Let's see what happens when we factor p(x)
2x^2 - 2x - 12
2(x^2 - x - 6)
2(x - 3)(x + 2)
The factors here are 2, x-3 and x+2
7 + (x/8) in written form. I hope this helps! -Dan
Answer:
C 210
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, First we must take 42/3, Since it equals 14, we take 15x14 and find 210
(edit: to solve for Kim's missing values, you do the same with 2 and 32)
Answer:
A) 5 3/10
B) 785 3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps <3
you find a common denominator and then simplify all fractions to that common denominator. then, you add them up!
2 1/5 + 3 1/10
5 can fit into 10 twice so it becomes...
2 2/10 + 3 1/10 which equals
<u>5 3/10</u>
472 2/5 + 312 3/4
5 times 4 is 20
472 8/20 + 312 15/20
there is a remainder of 3 for the fractions so you put it over 20.
<u>785 3/20</u>
