Plug in your coefficients
Answer:
Line A
Step-by-step explanation:
A line of symmetry is a line that divides a shape into exactly two equal halves.
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. A scalene triangle has no lines of symmetry, an isosceles triangle has more than one line of symmetry while an equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry.
From the diagram we can see that line A divides the figure into two equal halves, hence line A is the line of symmetry.
Answer:
The factors are (5x + 3) and (2x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you need to factor a quadratic, and the coefficient of the x² is not 1, use the slide and divide method.
The general form of a quadratic is ax² + bx + c
Factor: 10x² + 11x + 3
Here a = 10, b = 11, and c = 3
Step 1: Multiply ac, we SLIDE a over to c. Notice the 10 is gone for now..
x² + 11x + 30
Step 2: Factor this (this step will always factor)
x² + 11x + 30 = (x + 5)(x + 6)
So the factors are (x + 5)(x + 6), but we now need to DIVIDE by a, since we multiplied it into c before. We divide the constants in the factors...
(x + 5/10 )(x + 6/10 )
Now reduce the fractions as much as possible...
(x + 1/2 )(x + 3/5)
*If they don't reduce to a whole number, SLIDE the denominator over as a coefficient of x....
(2x + 1)(5x + 3) *2 slide over in front of x, 5 slide over in front of x, the fractions are gone!
These are our factors!
