Answer:
The answer is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2.4)(10) / -3(2)
-24/-6
=4
First, factor out a 3.
3(x² - 9)
In any quadratic ax² + bx + c, we can split the bx term up into two new terms which we want to equal the product of a and c.
In this case, we have x² + 0x - 9. (the 0x is a placeholder)
We want two numbers that add to 0 and multiply to get -9.
Obviously, these numbers are 3 and -3.
Now we have 3(x² + 3x - 3x - 9).
Let's factor.
3(x(x+3)-3(x+3))
<u>3(x-3)(x+3)</u>
There are multiple shortcuts which you could make here, FYI:
Instead of splitting the middle, if your a value is 1, you can go straight to that step (x+number)(x+other number).
Whenever you have a difference of squares, like a²-b², that factors to (a+b)(a-b).
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The line runs through the coordinate (0,0), rather than starting at (0,2), (0,4), or (0,8).
Always remember that you read coordinates as (x,y) which..
X is how many spaces right or left
Y is how many spaces up or down.
Subtract a number from the next number.
39 - 45 = -6
Answer: B. -6
