Enter the correct value so that each expression is a perfect-square trinomial.

Novosadov [1.4K]

If this is a perfect square trinomial, you want to look at your constant--36. the square root of 36 is 6, so your factors would be:

(x + 6)(x + 6) ... foil this, and see what your middle value is.
x² + 12x + 36 is your result. 12 is your middle term.

What is the simplified form of the quantity of x plus 8, all over the quantity of 3x plus 7 + the quantity of x plus 7, all over

Temka [501]

$\frac{x+8}{3x+7} + \frac{x+7}{x+4} \\ = \frac{(x+8)(x+4)+(x+7)(3x+7)}{(3x+7)(x+4)} \\ = \frac{ x^{2} +12x+32+3 x^{2} +28x+49}{3 x^{2} +19x+28} \\ = \frac{4 x^{2} +40x+81}{3 x^{2} +19x+28}$

The polynomial x^3-kx^2+kx+2 has a factor of (x-2). What is the value of k?

laiz [17]

$\text{Let}~ f(x) = x^3-kx^2 +kx +2.\\\\\text{If}~ x-2~ \text{is a factor of}~ f(x)~ \text{then,}\\ \\f(2) =0\\\\\implies 2^3-k\cdot 2^2 +2k+2 =0\\\\\implies -4k+2k+8+2=0\\\\\implies 10-2k=0\\\\\implies 2k =10\\\\\implies k= \dfrac{10}2 = 5\\\\\\\text{Hence, the value of k is 5.}$
