<h3>
Answer: w^2 + 3w - 10</h3>
===============================================
Work Shown:
Let x = w-2
This will allow us to replace the (w-2) with x to get...
(w-2)(w+5)
x(w+5)
x*w + x*5 ... distribute
w(x) + 5(x)
Now replace x with w-2 and distribute again
w(x) + 5(x)
w(w-2) + 5(w-2)
w*w + w*(-2) + 5*w + 5*(-2)
w^2 - 2w + 5w - 10
w^2 + 3w - 10
Answer:
D. just sub x = 1, and if the y you get is 5 then that's the answer
A. 2
b. 0
c. -2
d. 0
f(x) just means that the number in the parentheses is the x-value and if it asks for f(x) it wants the y-value at that x point
1. The segment LO bisects one of the angles of the triangle shown in the figure attached, and divide the segment NM in two segments: NO and OM. Therefore, you must apply the Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem, which is shown below:
LN/LM=NO/OM
LN=10
LM=18
NO=4
OM=x (The value you want to find)
2. When you substitute this values in LN/LM=NO/OM, you have:
10/18=4/x
10x=(18)(4)
x=(18)(4)/10
x=72/10
3. Finally, you obtain:
x=7.2
The answer is: The value of "x" is 7.2
