To factor: Notice that when you factor it should turn out to be a binomial x binomial.

x^2-10x+25

When factoring you can look at the operation at the end right before the last digit. If the operation is positive then you will use the first operation in the binomial for factored number. For example the ending operation is positive and the first operation is subtraction so both binomial will be subtraction.

I know it would be factored (x-5)(x-5) and I can prove it by multiplying it out.

x^2 -5x-5x+25

x^2-10x+25

<h2>Complete Question: </h2>

Learning Task 1: Identify similar and dissimilar fractions. On your note- book write S if the fractions are similar and D if dissimilar.

1. $\frac{2}{3} $ and $ \frac{1}{3}$

2. $\frac{3}{4} $ and $ \frac{1}4}$

3. $\frac{4}{7} $ and $ \frac{7}{8}$

4. $\frac{2}{5} $ and $ \frac{5}{11}$

5. $\frac{7}{13} $ and $ \frac{7}{9}$

<h2>The answers:</h2>

1. $\frac{2}{3} $ and $ \frac{1}{3}$ - Similar (S)

2. $\frac{3}{4} $ and $ \frac{1}4}$ - Similar (S)

3. $\frac{4}{7} $ and $ \frac{7}{8}$ - Dissimilar (D)

4. $\frac{2}{5} $ and $ \frac{5}{11}$ - Dissimilar (D)

5. $\frac{7}{13} $ and $ \frac{7}{9}$ - Dissimilar (D)

Note:

Similar fractions have the same denominator. i.e. the bottom value of both fractions are the same.
Dissimilar fractions have different value as denominator, i.e. the bottom value of both fractions are not the same.

Thus:

1. $\frac{2}{3} $ and $ \frac{1}{3}$ - They have equal denominator. Both fractions are similar (S).

2. $\frac{3}{4} $ and $ \frac{1}4}$ - They have equal denominator. Both fractions are similar (S).

3. $\frac{4}{7} $ and $ \frac{7}{8}$ - They have equal denominator. Both fractions are dissimilar (D).

4. $\frac{2}{5} $ and $ \frac{5}{11}$ - They have equal denominator. Both fractions are dissimilar (D).

5. $\frac{7}{13} $ and $ \frac{7}{9}$ - They have equal denominator. Both fractions are dissimilar (D).

Therefore, the fractions in 1 and 2 are similar (S) while those in 3, 4, and 5 are dissimilar (D).

FIND THE VALUE OF X. 1. (5x - 2)° (3x + 4)

Archy [21]

Answer:

If 5x-2 = 3x+4, then x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2=3x+4

Add 2 to both sides, and you get 5x=3x+6. Subtract 3x from both sides, and you get 2x=6. Divide both sides by 2, and what's left is x=3. Hope this helps. :)
