Answer:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -18 .

     -8    +    1    =    -7

     -4    +    2    =    -2

     -2    +    4    =    2

     -1    +    8    =    7

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Final result :

 2 • (x2 - 18x - 8)

If | 8x -2 | < 4, Which of the following is true of x? Explain as well.
wariber [46]

The true expression of the variable x in the inequality expression given as |8x - 2| < 4 is -0.25 < x < 0.75

<h3>What are inequality expressions?</h3>

Inequality expressions are mathematical statements that are represented by variables, coefficients and operators where the opposite sides are not equal

<h3>How to determine the true expression of the variable x?</h3>

The inequality expression is given as

|8x - 2| < 4

Divide through the above equations by 2

So, we have the following inequality expression

|4x - 1| < 2

Remove the absolute value sign from the inequality expression

So, we have

-2 < 4x - 1 < 2

Add 1 to all sides of the above inequality expression

So, we have

-1 < 4x < 3

Divide through the above inequality expression by 4

So, we have

-0.25 < x < 0.75

Hence, the true expression of the variable x in the inequality expression given as |8x - 2| < 4 is -0.25 < x < 0.75

How are problems like these solved
Flura [38]

the angles on the opposite sides of a quadrilateral touching the circumference adds up to 180 degrees

so,

(21x-2) + (38x +5) = 180

21x+38x −2+5=180

59x+3=180

59x=177

x=3
