Factor 4n^2 - 5n -6​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Allushta [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(n-2) • (4n+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4n2-5n-6  

Final result :

 (n - 2) • (4n + 3)

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (22n2 -  5n) -  6

Step  2  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     Factoring  4n2-5n-6  

The first term is,  4n2  its coefficient is  4 .

The middle term is,  -5n  its coefficient is  -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -6  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   4 • -6 = -24  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -24  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -5 .

     -24    +    1    =    -23  

     -12    +    2    =    -10  

     -8    +    3    =    -5    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -8  and  3  

                    4n2 - 8n + 3n - 6

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   4n • (n-2)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (n-2)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (4n+3)  •  (n-2)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 (n - 2) • (4n + 3)

It takes an farm 3 days to consume 1/5 of an apple at that rate in how many days will the ant farm consume 3 apples
KonstantinChe [14]
If 1/5 of an apple is consumed in three days, we would do 3 x 5, which would give us 15. That means it takes 15 days for the ant farm to consume 1 apple. Times that by three, and it takes an ant farm 45 days to consume 3 apples.

A rectangle has a height of 777 and a width of 2x^2-32x
Murljashka [212]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

Hello! Remember you have to write clear questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here I'll assume the data given in a comment above. So:

H:height \\ \\ W:Width \\ \\ \\ H=7 \\ \\ W= 2x^2-32x+2

We know that the area (A) of any rectangle is given by:

A=H\times W \\ \\ A=7(2x^2-32x+2) \\ \\ \\ Expanding: \\ \\ A=(7)(2x^2)-(7)(32x)+(7)(2) \\ \\  \boxed{A=14x^2-224x+14}
