Answer:

= (x+4) (x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-3x -28

Product = -28

Sum = -3

numbers = -7 and 4

Thus;

x²- 3x -28 ; replacing -3x with -7x and 4x

x²-7x +4x -28

x(x-7) + 4(x-7)

<u>= (x+4) (x-7) </u>

Answer:

(x-7)(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given an expression.

x²-3x-28

We have to factorize given expression.

Split the middle term of above expression so that the sum of two term should be -3 and their product be -28.

x²-7x+4x-28

Making groups and taking common , we have

x(x-7)+4(x-7)

Taking (x-7) as common, we have

(x-7)(x+4) which is the answer.

How do you determine where f(x)=cos^(-1)(lnx) is continuous?

olga nikolaevna [1]

$\ln x$ is continuous over its domain, all real $x>0$ .

Meanwhile, $\cos^{-1}y$ is defined for real $-1\le y\le1$ .

If $y=\ln x$ , then we have $-1\le \ln x\le1\implies \dfrac1e\le x\le e$ as the domain of $\cos^{-1}(\ln x)$ .

We know that if $f$ and $g$ are continuous functions, then so is the composite function $f\circ g$ .

Both $\cos^{-1}y$ and $\ln x$ are continuous on their domains (excluding the endpoints in the case of $\cos^{-1}y$ ), which means $\cos^{-1}(\ln x)$ is continuous over $\dfrac1e$ .

When the prefix milli is used, it means multiply the number by ? ?

valina [46]

1 meter = 1000 millimeters

so, 5 meters = 5*1000 = 5000 millimeters

and 6000 millimeters = 6000 / 1000 = 6 meters
