ANSWER
B. The two middle coefficients add to the correct number but do not multiply to the correct number.
EXPLANATION
The given quadratic trinomial that Tina tries to factor is
Comparing to
we have a=10, b=-13 and c=-3
ac=-3×10=-30
We split the middle term so that their sum is -13.
Tina use
-10,-3
to get
-10x-3x
The sum is -13x alright but the product is not -30.
B is correct.
Draw a line through R parallel to the segment PQ
First choice.
Is there a picture for this?
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
C is the most logical answer
Answer:
B is the best answer
The question is illustrated with the attached figure.

Determine XY
To solve for XY, we make use of the tan function, which states that:
tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}tanθ=
Hypotenuse
Opposite
In this case:
tan\ 60= \frac{YZ}{XY}tan 60=
XY
YZ
Substitute 4 for YZ
tan\ 60= \frac{4}{XY}tan 60=
XY
4
Make XY the subject
XY= \frac{4}{tan\ 60}XY=
tan 60
4
tan\ 60 =\sqrt 3tan 60=
3
So, the expression becomes:
XY = \frac{4}{\sqrt 3}XY=

Rationalize:
XY = \frac{4 * \sqrt 3}{\sqrt 3 * \sqrt 3}XY=
