First find the greatest common factor which is 3.
now write the GCF first, and then in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF;
3(108/3 + (-3x^2/3)
3(36 - x^2)
3(6^2 - x^2)
use the difference of squares;
3(6 + x)(6 - x)
hope this helped!
Answer:
(3, 3) and (15, 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
The points equidistant from the given point and the y-axis lie on the parabola that has (3,6) as its focus and the y-axis as its directrix. The equation for that can be simplified from ...
(x -3)^2 +(y -6)^2 = x^2
-6x +9 +y^2 -12y +36 = 0 . . . . . subtract x^2, eliminate parentheses
We can find the points that lie on the line y=x (equidistant from both axes) by substituting y for x or vice versa. Then we have the quadratic ...
x^2 -18x +45 = 0 . . . . substitute x for y and collect terms
(x -3)(x -15) = 0 . . . . factor it
x = 3 or 15
So, the points of interest are (x, y) = (3, 3) and (x, y) = (15, 15).
