Answer:

x^{2} -2x-15=(x-5)(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

2x^{2} -4x-30

This is a quadratic expression, which can be equal to zero

2x^{2} -4x-30=0

Now, we extract the greatest common factor to obtain an easier expression to factor

2(x^{2} -2x-15)=0\\x^{2} -2x-15=0

To factor, first we write two binomials, the sign of the first one must be the same of the linear term and the sign of the second binomila must the product of the sign of the linear term and the constant term

x^{2} -2x-15=(x-a)(x+b)

Now, we have to find to number which product is 15 and which difference is 2, those numbers are 5 and 3, because 5 times 3 is 15, and 5 minus 3 is 2.

Therefore, the solution is

x^{2} -2x-15=(x-5)(x+3)

The sum of Eric’s and Bob’s weights is 9 times the difference of their weights. The positive difference of their weights is also
Pie

Answer:

<u>150</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

So I will shorten Eric, and Bob's names as E, and B.

So the equations are this

B-E = B+E - 240, E as Eric, and B as Bob, and this E+B=9(E-B)

Move the variables and you get

-2E =- 240

Just divide them both by -2

and E=120

So when we know the value of E we can just plug it into the 1st question

120+B=9B+1080

Moves the Variables and numbers to the other side

8B=1200

1200/8= 150

B=150

There is Bob's weight

-6x + 3y = 9<br>10x + 4y = -6<br>​
Stells [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

(-6x +3y=9 )×4

( 10x+4y)×3

-24x +12y =36

30x+12y= -18

-24x+12y- (30x+12y)= 36-(-18)

-54x = 54

x= -1

by using 10x +4y = -6

apply x= -1

-10+4y= -6

4y= -6 +10

4y=4

y=1

so the answer is x=-1 and y= 1

Find the perimiter now

that is right triangle so
when hpotonouse is c and hthe lgs are a and b
a²+b²=c²

given
leg is 8
hypotonuse is 13

8²+b²=13²
64+b²=169
minus 64 from both sides
b²=105
sqrt both sides
b=√105

find total perimiter
8+13+√105=21+√105

times 1/32 for scale
0.65625+0.32021721143623744947565745876628=

How to find minimum and maximum of this equation.
Westkost [7]

Using it's vertex, the maximum value of the quadratic function is -3.19.

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The vertex is given by:

(x_v, y_v)

In which:

  • x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}
  • y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}

Considering the coefficient a, we have that:

  • If a < 0, the vertex is a maximum point.
  • If a > 0, the vertex is a minimum point.

In this problem, the equation is:

y + 4 = -x² + 1.8x

In standard format:

y = -x² + 1.8x - 4.

The coefficients are a = -1 < 0, b = 1.8, c = -4, hence the maximum value is:

y_v = -\frac{1.8^2 - 4(-1)(-4)}{4(-1)} = -3.19
