What is the factored form of x^2-x-2

Mathematics

tekilochka [14]3 years ago

For this case we have:

By definition, the factorization is an algebraic expression that is used to find two or more factors, taking into account that the product of these factors must be equal to the given expression.

That is to say:

Given an expression of the form x ^ 2 + (a + b) x + ab

We can factor in the following way:

(x + a) (x + b)

Since, its product is: x ^ 2 + bx + ax + ab = x ^ 2 + (a + b) x + ab,

checking the given definition.

If we have:

x ^ 2-x-2

We can factor:

(x-2) (x + 1)

When making your product we obtain:x ^ 2 + x-2x-2 = x ^ 2-x-2

Answer:

(x-2) (x + 1)

Got this online. Pour the distilled water in the beaker until it is half full. Add 3 tbsp. of salt to the water and mix until completely dissolved.

Insert the two electrodes into the salt water. They should be on either side of the beaker. Once this is done, the light bulb should light up.

B. A 50A by 35ft residential
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

1.13 food per square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dimension: 50ft by 35ft

Servings = 1975

Required

Determine the amount per servings

First, we calculate the area.

Area = 50ft * 35ft

Area = 1750ft^2

Next, we calculate the amount per square foot.

This is:

Rate = \frac{Serivings}{Area}

This gives;

Rate = \frac{1975}{1750}

Rate = 1.13

Can someone please explain to me the difference between SAS and SSS in Geometry when dealing with triangle proofs?
ANTONII [103]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:   SAS = side - angle -side    congruence

              SSS  = side - side - side     congruence


Discussion :

In Plane Geometry,  identical triangles are said to be "congruent". There are several ways, depending upon the information you have, to prove 2 triangles are congruent.

In one approach ("SSS") if you can show that 2 triangles have identical side lengths,  then the triangles are congruent. (A triangle has 3 sides, hence "SSS" -- 3 S's; 3 sides, get it?)

In another approach ("SAS") if you can show that 2 sides, and the angle included between those sides, in one triangle are identical to the sides and included angle in another triangle,  then the triangles are congruent

It's easier to understand this with a picture or diagram than in words. Please review the SSS, SAS picture in your textbook

Regards, MrB
