The answer is probably the first or second one. I made it easier for you
The given trinomial can be factored using the factorization method.
x² - 2x - 24
The middle term should be written is such a way that the sum of two terms is equal to the middle one and their product should be equal to the product of first and third term. So the above expression can be written as
= x² -6x + 4x - 24
= x(x-6) + 4(x-6)
= (x-6)(x+4)
Thus, (x-6)(x+4) is the factored form of the polynomial.
So the correct answer is option B
18 cm is correct .
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two smaller sides is greater that the largest side.
It is given that the two sides of a triangle measure 8 cm and 15 cm.
Case 1: Let 8 cm and 15 cm. are smaller side. So,
<em>Third side < 8 + 15</em>
<em>Third side < 23</em>
<em>It means 3rd side must be less than 23</em>
<em>Case 2: Let 15 cm is the largest side.</em>
<em>15 < Third side + 8</em>
15 - 8 < Third side
7 < Third side
It means 3rd side must be greater than 7.
Since only 18 is less than 23 and greater than 7, therefore the possible length of third sides is 18 cm and option 2 is correct.
Answer: $7,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: SI = P(1 + rt)
SI = 5000(1 + 0.05[10])
SI = 5000 + 2500
SI = $7,500
After 10 years, your balance should be $7,500
Answer:
6 14/15
Step-by-step explanation:
I would say simplifie the paratensies.
First:
3 2/3+ 17 1/5 =
Common factor of 3 and 5 is 15
3 10/15 + 17 3/15 = 20 13/15
Second:
11 3/5 + 2 1/3 =
Common factor of 3 and 5 is 15
11 9/15 + 2 5/15 = 13 14/15
20 13/15 - 13 14/15 = 7 13/15 - 14/15 = 7 - 1/15 = 6 14/15
