Two students, Carlos and Sophie, factored the trinomial -4x2 − 10x + 6. Sophie factored it as -2(2x − 1)(x + 3) and Carlos facto

red it as (x + 3)( -4x + 2). Indicate which student factored the trinomial completely and which student did not, and explain why. (10 points)

Sophie has factored the term completely while Carlos has not factored the term completely.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the trinomial:

-4x^2-10x + 6

Factoring:

-4x^2-10x + 6\\Taking\,\,-2\,\,common:\\-2(2x^2+5x-3)\\Now\,\,factoring:\\-2(2x^2+6x-x-3)\\-2(2x(x+3)-1(x+3))\\-2(2x-1)(x+3)

So, the factored form of -4x^2-10x + 6 is -2(2x-1)(x+3)

So, Sophie has factored the term completely. The terms are factored when we cannot further simplify it. Since Carlos factored (x+3)(-4x+2) 2 can be taken common from the term (-4x+2) so, it is not factored completely.

Answer:

#1). a - b=4

a=4 + b .....(equation 1)

#2) a + b=12

(4 + b) + b= 12

4 + b + b=12

4 + 2b=12

2b= 12 - 4

2b =8

b= 8:2

b=4

subtituted b in equation 1

a= 4 + b

a= 4 + 4

a=8

so, the number is 8 and 4

Answer:

8 interior angles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • There is a simple trick to finding the number of interior angles
  • For instance, a triangle has 3 sides, and how many angles are in a triangle? 3
  • A square has 4 sides and 4 interior angles
  • A pentagon has 5 sides and 5 interior angles
  • So an octagon, the shape we have here, has 8 sides so 8 interior angles

Two angles are complementary. The value of one angle is twice as that of the other one. Find the individual angle ​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles both add up to 90°. Therefore if one angle is twice the other, then if we divide 90 by 3 then we get 30. Two parts of 30 is 60 plus the other 30 and we get 90. The individual angle is 60°and the other is 30°

The answer I got was 21 because 6x3=18 5x2=10 3-4=-1 and -1x3=-3
-3 x 2=-6 and the +2 so you would have
18+10+-3+-6+2
28+. -3+-6+2
25+-6+2
