Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x -
14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.
Answer: 5x^2 -3x -14
Explanation:
You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.
I will show you how to factor that polynomial from zero:
1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14
2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>
5 [5x^2 - 3x -14 ]
----------------------
5
3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:
5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
5
4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms
(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
5
5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:
(5x ) ( 5x ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7) <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is - 70
=>
(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
5
6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2
7) factored expression
(x - 2) (5x + 7)
8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)
2. Question 2. The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 +
7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring
Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>
Explanation:
The procedure is the same of the question 1.
1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20
2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>
(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)
=>
(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
6
(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
3.2
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)
------------- . ------------ =
3 2
(2x + 5)(3x - 4)
4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>
Answer:
DE = 20units
Step-by-step explanation:
In Δ ABC,
angle A is congruent to angle B.... (given)
therefore, ΔABC is an isoceles triangle.
therefore, CA = CB..... (side opposite to congruent angles are congruent in an isoceles triangle)
therefore, CB = 4 units
In ΔCDE,
angle D is congruent to angle E.... (given)
therefore, ΔCDE is an isoceles triangle.
therefore, CD = CE
therefore, CD = 8 units
ΔCDE ~ ΔCBA
therefore,
I believe its d because that was what I was doing 2days ago
Answer
False
FalseThe correct point slope form passing through points (x1,y1) is (y-y1)=m (x-x1)(y−y1)=m(x−x1)
Slope point form:
We need the slope "m" and a point (x₀,y₀)
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
1)
we calculate the slope "m".
Given two points:
(x₁,y₁)
(x₂,y₂)
the slope "m" is:
m=(y₂-y₁) / (x₂-x₁)
In this case:
(4,10)
(6,11)
m=(11-10) / (6-4)=1/2
Now, we calculate the solpe point form.
(4,10)
m=1/2
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-10=(1/2)(x-4)
we make the standard form
y-10=x/2 - 2
Lowest common multiple=2
2y-20=x-4
-x+2y=-4+20
-x+2y=16
Answer: -x+2y=16
