Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial x^2+4x-60

1 answer:

6 0

Suppose x-6 is listed as a possible answer. That is zero if x = 6. So put x=6 into the original x^2 + 4x - 60 to get 6^2 + 4*6 - 60 = 36 + 24 -60 = 0. hence x-6 is a factor.

Answer (x-6)

on this hand :x-5 is not a factor, because plugging x=5 into does not work.

3x+20=5x+12
-3x -3x
20= 2x +12
-12 -12
8=2x
Divide both sides by two
4=x
It will take four days (this is how to solve algebraically)

What is the poinet-slope form of the equation for the line in the graph?

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$y -5 = \frac{9}{13}(x - 7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Two points are given in graph (-6, -4) and {7, 5).

The point-slope form of the equation of a straight line is:

$y -y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})$ ------------(1)

Let $(x_{1}, y_{1})=(7,5)$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})=(-6,-4)$

The slope of the line $m=\frac{y_{2}- y_{1}}{x_{2}- x_{1}}$

Put all known value in above equation.

$m=\frac{-4- 5}{-6- 7}$

$m=\frac{-9}{-13}$

$m=\frac{9}{13}$

The slope of the line $m=\frac{9}{13}$

We know m, and also know that $(x_{1}, y_{1})=(7,5)$ , so we put these value in equation 1.

$y -5 = \frac{9}{13}(x - 7)$

Therefore, the equation of the line is $y -5 = \frac{9}{13}(x - 7)$ .
