The model represents x2 – 9x + 14. An algebra tile configuration showing only the Product spot. 24 tiles are in the Product spot

: 1 is labeled + x squared, 9 are labeled negative x, and 14 are labeled +. Which is a factor of x2 – 9x + 14? x – 9 x – 2 x + 5 x + 7
The answer is x-2

I didn't get all the part with the tiles, but here's the general answer:

given a polynomial

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c

we have that x-k is a factor of p(x) if and only if k is a root of p(x), i.e. if

p(k)=ak^2+bk+c=0

So, given the polynomial

p(x)=x^2-9x+14

We can check if x-9 is a factor by evaluating p(9):

p(9)=81-81+14=14\neq 0

So, x-9 is not a factor.

Similarly, we can evaluate p(2),\ p(-5),\ p(-7) to check if x-2,\ x+5,\ x+7 are factors:

p(2)=4-18+14=0,\quad p(-5)=25+45+14=84\neq 0,\quad p(-7)=49+63+14=126 \neq 0

So, only x-2 is a factor of x^2-9x+14

Translate the following statements into symbolic form using capital letters to representaffirmative English statement.
ozzi

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two distinct statements but put together, it is:

- If Maria Cantwell (MC) promotes Alternative Energy (AE) and if Patty Murray (PM) supports Wilderness Areas (WA) then Dianne Feinstein (DF) advocating Gun Control (GC), implies that Susan Collins (SC) does so too.

For Susan Collins, she advocates gun control too.

So the symbolic or algebraic representation is:

(SC = DF): (MC ~ AE), (PM ~ WA)

OR

(GC = GC): (MC ~ AE), (PM ~ WA)

Where ":" represents "such that" or "given that"

" ~ " represents "support or promotion of"

It can now be read thus;

Susan Collins has same or equal interest as Dianne Feinstein, given that Maria Cantwell promotes alternative energy and Patty Murray supports Wilderness Areas.

CD is the segment bisector of AB at D. If AD = 4x-1 and DB = 9x-21. what is the length of AD and AB
Artemon [7]

Answer:

AD= 15

AB=30

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Point D bisect the line segment AB

Hence AD = DB

AD= 4x-1

BD=9x-21

Hence

4x-1=9x-21

adding 21 on both sides and subtracting 4x from both sides

4x-4x-1+21=9x-4x-21+21

-1+21=5x

5x=20

dividing both sides by x we get

x=4

Hence

AD = 4x-1

= 4(4)-1= 16-1=15

AD= 15

AB = 2 x AD

     = 2 x 15

  = 30
