Answer: Choice E
multiply to give a*c and add to get b
===========================================
This is known as the AC factoring method based on how you multiply the first and last coefficients (a and c) and use that product to figure out which factors add to the middle coefficient.
---------
An example:
6x^2 + 35x + 50
We have a = 6, b = 35, c = 50
Multiply a and c and we get: a*c = 6*50 = 300
We need to find factors of 300 that pair up and add to 35
Through trial and error you should find,
15 * 20 = 300
15 + 20 = 35
The two numbers are therefore 15 and 20.
So we break 35x into 15x+20x and use the factor by grouping method
6x^2 + 35x + 50
6x^2 + 15x + 20x + 50
(6x^2 + 15x) + (20x + 50)
3x(2x + 5) + 10(2x + 5)
(3x + 10)(2x + 5)
We see that 6x^2 + 35x + 50 factors to (3x + 10)(2x + 5)
Use the FOIL method or the box method or distribution to help see that (3x + 10)(2x + 5) expands back to 6x^2 + 35x + 50.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 12in (1ft)+X=28in
2. 6in.+X=42
3. 170.5sq.ft./15.5=x
4. 120ft/12ft=x10sec.
well it would make sense to say that the longest fish is 12in longer than the shorter fish because if you take 21in (the longest fish) and subtract 9 (the shortest fish) you would get 12.
Hope that helped pls give brainlist
Answer:
the new one for a: 12/21 and 15/21
the new one for b: 20/25 and 15/25
the new one for c: 20/27 and 33/27
the new one for d: 25/24 and 36/24
Step-by-step explanation:
4/7 x 3/3 equals 12/21
3/5 x 5/5 equals 15/25
11/9 x 3/3 equals 33/27
6/4 x 6/6 equals 36/24
