Use factoring to simplify the expression x^2-x-6/x-3 assume that x does not equal 3

This works out beautifully.  You COULD use long division here, but since your numerator is a quadratic, your first instinct should be to try and factor it.  If you factor it, it works out to be (x - 3)(x + 2).  Now it just so happens that when you do that, the (x - 3) in the numerator will cancel with the (x - 3) in the denominator leaving you with one sad and lonely (x + 2) as your answer.

A circle and a square can intersect at how many points
SSSSS [86.1K]

If the circle has the same center as the diagonals of a square and the radius of the circle is smaller than 1/2 the diagonal of the square but larger than 1/2 the length of the side of a square, then there are 8 points of intersection -- 2 at each corner of the square.

If the radius of the circle is smaller than 1/2 the side length of the square and the center is as described above, there are no points of intersection.

If the circle is located outside the square it can have 1 tangent point or 2 intersection points depending on the location conditions of the circle in relation to the square.

To solve this problem, we need to know the formulas for the areas of each of these shapes. The formula for the area of a circle is πr², the area of a rectangle is b * h, the area for a square is s², and the area for a triangle is 0.5bh. Now we can solve.

1) This is a circle, so the area is πr² = π(6)² = 36<span>π square feet

2) This is a square, so the area is s</span>² = 12² = 144 square yards

3) This is a rectangle, so the area is b * h = 6 * 14 = 84 square inches

4) This is a rectangle, so the area is b * h = 7 * 3 = 21 square inches

5) This is a circle, so the area is πr² = π(4)² = 16<span>π square feet

6) This is a triangle, so the area is 0.5bh = 0.5 (8 * 8) = 0.5 * 64 = 32 yd.</span>²

7) This is a triangle, so the area is 0.5bh = 0.5 (5 * 10) = 50 * 0.5 = 25 yd.²

8) This is a rectangle, so the area is b * h = 10 * 2 = 20 in²

9) This is a square, so the area is s² = 9² = 81 ft²
