Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
x² + 5x + 6
Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
The factors are 3 and 2, since
3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5, hence
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form
(b)
To solve
x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← use the factored form, that is
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
if you were to use the first ordered pair, your answer would be y - 2 = 11/3(x-7) and with the second ordered pair : y + 9 = 11/3(x-4
Answer: 24.7
cos 54° = x/42
⇔ x = 42. cos 54°
⇔ x ≈ 24.7
