Need help with favoring equations. First is m squared minus m minus six

Mathematics
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]3 years ago

Answer:

(m − 3) (m + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

m² − m − 6

To factor a quadratic ax² + bx + c, you can use the AC method.

1. Multiply a and c.

2. Find factors of ac that add up to b.

3. Divide the factors by a and reduce.

4. The denominators are the coefficients, the numerators are the constants.

Here, a = 1, b = -1, and c = -6.

1. ac = -6

2. Factors of -6 that add up to -1 are -3 and 2.

3. -3/1, 2/1

4. Factors are m − 3 and m + 2.

m² − m − 6 = (m − 3) (m + 2)

Julio says "If you subtract 13 from my number and multipy the difference by -3 the result is -45" what is Julio's number
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:28

Step-by-step explanation:

Julio's number is x

(X-13)*-3=-45

Divide by -3

X-13=15

Add13 to both sides

x=28

Need answer to 2/3+5/4
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

23/12 or 1 and 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Your first step is that you need to gain a common denomitor. In this scenario, this is 12. To get this, you can either go through the given factors such as 3 having the factors of 6, 9, and 12 and 4 having the factors of 8, and 12.

Another method is the multiply the two given denominators together, but there are certain instances where you shouldn't do that.

Now that you have a common denominator, you need to change the numerators to accomadate the denominators. For 3 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 4, thus you have to do the same to the numerator. For 4 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 3. This will give you these two new fractions:

8/12 + 15/12

Add the numerators to get 23/12 and then simplify the two numbers to get the mixed number of 1 and 11/12.

Hope this helps!

ANYONE GOOD AT MATH?<br><br> PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME :(
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The parent function is f(x)=a(x-h)^{2} +k

That Parabola's equation is f(x)=x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't really explain much, but the top equation is a formula for <em>all </em>equations for a parabola. h and k are the x and y-values of the vertex. a is, well, a.

How did I find the equation of the parabola? Simple. Since the vertex is on the origin, h and k are 0. Also, because it intercepts (2,4) and (1,1), a=1.

The price of gasoline at a service station increased from $1.65 per gallon last week to $1.82 per gallon this week. Sally paid $
Mila [183]

Answer:

  $2.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase from last week is the fraction ...

  (new price)/(old price) -1 = (1.82/1.65) -1 = 17/165

so the amount of increase Sally will pay this week is ...

  17/165×$26.40 = $2.72

_____

<em>Comment on the working</em>

We could work this several ways. Perhaps most straightforward would be to determine how many gallons Sally bought last week, and multiply that by the change in price. Or, the number of gallons could be multiplied by the new price per gallon and the difference from the old purchase amount found.

If you look at the numbers, you see that we have effectively done it the first way. The change in price is $0.17 per gallon, and the number of gallons Sally bought is $26.40/$1.65.
