2x^2 - 8x - 24

First, we can factor a 2 out of this expression to simplify it.

2(x^2 - 4x - 12)

Now, we can try factoring this two ways: by using the quadratic formula, or by using the AC method.

We're gonna try using the AC method first.

List factors of -12.

1 * -12

-1 * 12

2 * -6

-2 * 6 (these digits satisfy the criteria.)

Split the middle term.

2(x^2 - 2x + 6x - 12)

Factor by grouping.

2(x(x - 2) + 6(x - 2)

Rearrange terms.

<h3><u>(2)(x + 6)(x - 2) is the fully factored form of the given polynomial.</u></h3>

Answer:

8 ± √5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 8x - 24 = 0

Here Discriminant(D) = b² - 4ac > 0.

Here a is the coefficient of x²

b is the coefficient of x

c is the constant term

Thus, it has Real roots.

Now, using the Sridharayacharya Formula,

\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac}}{4a}

Putting the values:

\frac{8\pm\sqrt{(64 - 4\times 2\times -24 }}{4\times2}

\frac{8\pm\sqrt{280 }}{8}

⇒8 ± √5

masya89 [10]

Answer:

27°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature on February 9th 1934 = -15°C

The next day the temperature rose 42 degrees.

We need to find an expression for the temperature on February 10th.

February 10th temperature = -15 + 42

= 27°C

So, the temperature on February 10th is 27°C.

PLEASE HELP. Please show all work. Im giving 80 points to whoever answers it first.

Answer:

1.1) B=12.42°, C=146.58°, c=15.37  

1.2) B=8°, C=124°, c=35.7  

2) In the case of SSA, when the given angle A is acute (<90°), the side "a" (opposite to the given angle "A") is less than the other given side "b" (a<b), and a > b sinA.  

3.1) Perimeter = 31.37 units, Area = 16.5 square units  

3.2) Perimeter = 73.70 units, Area = 75.6 square units  

4.1) Magnitude of vector AB=5.1

4.2) Direction of vector AB=348.69°  

5.1) The dot product of two vectors is equal to the sum of the product of their components

5.2) a . b = 10  

6.1) Trigonometric form: z = 3√2 (cos 315°+ i sin 315°)  

6.2) The 4th roots are:  

w1 = 18^(1/8) [cos(78.75°) + i sin(78.75°)]

w2 = 18^(1/8) [cos(168.75°) + i sin(168.75°)]

w3 = 18^(1/8) [cos(258.75°) + i sin(258.75°)]

w4 = 18^(1/8) [cos(348.75°) + i sin(348.75°)]


Step-by-step explanation:

3.1) Perimeter: P = a+b+c → P = 10+6+15.37 → P = 31.37  

Area: A = a b sinC / 2

Replacing the known values:

A = (10)(6) sin 146.58325418° / 2 → A = 60(0.55072472) / 2 →

A = 16.52174152 → A = 16.52 square units


3.2) Perimeter: P = a+b+c → P = 32+6+35.70 → P=73.70

Area: A = a b sin C /2

Replacing the known values:

A = (32)(6) sin 123.99036327° / 2 → A = 192(0.82913161) / 2 →

A = 75.59663485 → A = 75.6 square units

-3x + y = -24<br> y = 7x + 22
levacccp [35]

Answer:

first one: 8

second one: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + y = -24 |÷(-3x)

y = 8

y = 7x + 22 |-y

(y would be 1; the 7x moves to the other side.) meams:

7x = 21 |÷7

x = 3
