Use factoring to find the zeros. x2 - 9x – 36 = 0

4 0

Answer: x=12, x=-3

Step-by-step explanation: For this factored problem, you see that -36 is negative, as well at -9. This shows you that you need to find two numbers that multiply to get -36, and add up to get -9. Two numbers that both satisfy these requirements are -12 and 3. They multiply to get -36, and add to get -9.

Once you have found your values, you plug them into (x+/- __)(x+/- __), which is (x-12)(x+3).

But since the problem asks you to find the zeroes, you set each factor equal to zero, like this:

x-12=0 and x+3=0

Then solve and you have you answer!

Need help plz <br> How do you do this?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

See description below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A distance -time graph of Maria's journey would look like a very steep line with slope 100 meters/1 minute until minute 4. At minute 4, Maria stopped to talk so it would like a horizontal flat line at that same distance for 3 minutes. This means at minute 7, Maria began walking again. From minute 7 on would be a positive line heading up with a slope of 75 meters/ 1 minute.

Help Please I'm Out Of Time ;(
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whole numbers are integers that are 0 or greater than 0.  Since 0 is a whole number and x > 0 does not include 0, the statement is not true. Only the sign ≥ includes 0.

Simplify (x^6)^2 • x^3
givi [52]

Answer:

x^15

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall these rules of exponents:

(a^m)^n = a^mn

a^m • a^n = a^(m + n)

(x^6)² • x³ = x^(2 • 6) • x³ = x^12 • x³ = x^(12 + 3) = x^15
