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

Mathematics
1 answer:
3241004551 [841]3 years ago
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!

You need to make 5 grilled cheese sandwiches. You have a grill that is large enough to toast 2 sandwiches at a time. The sandwic
n200080 [17]
Each sandwich is toasted for 2 minutes and it takes 3 seconds to flip it.
The first two sandwiches will be toasted in 2 minutes (toasting) and 6 seconds (flipping).
The two will then be switched which will take 10 seconds.
The next two will again take 2 minutes and 6 seconds.
The final sandwich will take 5 seconds to be placed.
The final sandwich will also take 2 minutes to toast and 3 seconds to flip.
Total time:
2 + 2 +2 = 6 minutes
6 + 10 + 6 + 3 = 25 seconds
Total time is 6 minutes and 25 seconds.

Solve y^2+7y+12=0 by completing the square.​
kkurt [141]

Answer:

y = -3, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is (b/2)^2

So...

(y+7/2)^2 - 1/4 = 0

Add 1/4 to each side

(y+7/2)^2 = 1/4

Square root...

y+7/2 = +-1/2

Add

y = -3, -4
