1 answer:

5 0

To factor the polynomial x² - 7x - 18, find two numbers whose sum is -7 and whose product is -18. Begin listing factors of -18, and those numbers' sums.

-2 × 9 = -18; -2 + 9 = 7
-9 × 2 = -18; -9 + 2 = -7

The two numbers are -9 and 2.

The factored polynomial is (x - 9)(x + 2)

Answer:
The missing factor is (x + 2)

Me groves has trays of paint for her students. Each tray has 5 colors. One of the colors is purple. What fraction of the colors

Natali5045456 [20]

Purple = 1/5 of the colors

5 colors per tray, 20 trays = 5 * 20 = 100 colors

1/5 * 100 = 100/5 = 20

20 colors are purple

20/100 = 1/5

1/5

Pentagon CDEFG is shown on the coordinate plane. Pentagon CDEFG is translated 7 units up and 5 units left, resulting in C'D'E'F'

Sati [7]

Answer:

The length of line segment FG is equal to the length of F'G'

The perimeter of pentagon CDEFG is equal to the perimeter of pentagon C'D'E'F'G.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

CDEFG and C'D'E'F'G

Translation: 7 units up and 5 units left

Solving (a): Segment FG and F'G'

When a shape is translated, the resulting image will have the same lengths as the original image (i.e, translation does not change measurements)

Hence:

$FG = F'G'$

Solving (b): Perimeter CDEFG and C'D'EF'G'

In (a), we established that lengths do not change during translation;

Hence:

The perimeter of the CDEFG and C'D'EF'G' will remain the same
