Answer:

3x² – 2x – 8

=> 3x² – 6x + 4x – 8

=> 3x( x – 2 ) + 4( x – 2 )

=> ( 3x + 4 ) ( x – 2 )

Therefore,

Either, 3x + 4 = 0

3x = - 4

x = - 4/3 (Ans)

And,

x – 2 = 0

x = 2 (Ans)

Answer:

(x - 2)(3x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² - 2x - 8

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 3 × - 8 = - 24 and sum = - 2

The factors are - 6 and + 4

Use these factors to split the x- term

3x² - 6x + 4x - 8 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x(x - 2) + 4(x - 2) ← factor out (x - 2) from each term

= (x - 2)(3x + 4)

1. Solve and verify each of the following systems of linear equations.
kakasveta [241]
5x - 2y = -6 ⇒ 10x - 4y = -12
2x - 1y =  1 ⇒ <u>10x - 5y =    5</u>
                                  y = -17
                   5x - 2(-17) = -6
                       5x + 34 = -6
                       <u>      - 34 - 34</u>
                               <u>5x</u> = <u>-40</u>
                                5       5
                                 x = -8
                           (x, y) = (-8, -17)

2x + 3y = 432 ⇒ 10x + 15y = 2160
5x + 2y =   16 ⇒ <u>10x +   4y =     32</u>
                                     <u>11y</u> = <u>2128</u>

                                         y = 193.4545455
          2x + 3(193.4545455) = 432
              2x + 580.3636364 = 432
              <u>     - 580.3636364  - 580.3636364</u>

A triangle has one angle measuring 3x degrees. A second angle measures 2x + 20 degrees and the third angle measures 4x -20 degre
Maurinko [17]
All the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.

3x + (2x + 20) + (4x - 20) = 180
3x + 2x + 20 + 4x - 20 = 180
3x + 2x + 4x + 20 - 20 = 180
10x = 180
x = 180/10
Therefore, x = 18

Please help............... :)
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's list all the odd numbers less than 15.

13, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1

Prime numbers are numbers that can only be multiplied by 1 and themselves. But, we can see, that 9 can be multiplied by 3 and 3, making it a not-prime number (sorry I don't remember the exact name for that, I'm blanking out).

The number 9 makes that statement false.

Hope I helped! ouo.
