The first term will be an x because

x squared breaks down as x times x.

First look for factors of your constant that add to your

coefficient of the middle term in the trinomial.

Also note that the constant is negative and a negative

factors as the product of a positive and a negative.

The factors of -20 that add to -8 are -10 and +2.

So we have y = (x - 10)(x + 2).

Effectus [21]

Answer:

option a

option d

option e

Step-by-step explanation:

option a

-\frac{8}{11}+( -\frac{3}{4})+( -\frac{1}{4})=-\frac{8}{11}-\frac{3}{4} -\frac{1}{4}

option d

-(\frac{8}{11}+\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4})=-\frac{8}{11}-\frac{3}{4} -\frac{1}{4}

option e

-\frac{8}{11}-(\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4})=-\frac{8}{11}-\frac{3}{4} -\frac{1}{4}

A triangular prism is 17 yards long and has a triangular face with a base of 12 yards and a height of 8 yards. The other two sid
Lisa [10]

Answer:

640 yard²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The surface are of a triangular prism is given as

A = bh+2ls+lb.................. Equation 1

Where A = Surface area of the triangular prism, b = base of of the triangular face, h = height of the triangular face, l = length of the triangular prism, s =  length of one of the other sides of the triangle

Given: l = 17 yards, b = 12 yards, h = 8 yards, s = 10 yards.

Substitute these values into equation 1

A = [(12×8)+(2×17×10)+(17×12)]

A = 96+340+204

A = 640 Yard²

Please help me with 1a, thanks

Since 1A claims that the diagram is of a square, you can easily find the perimeter by multiplying just one side by 4, because the definition of a square says that all of its four sides are equal in length.

Take the left side, x and 4, and add them together, because both of these lengths add up to form the side of the square. You have found one side of the square, x + 4. Now multiply this side by 4 for the perimeter.

Perimeter is the length all around the figure, and since a square has 4 sides you would multiply one side by 4 to find the perimeter.

4(x + 4) is your expression for the perimeter of the square. You could probably solve 1B and 1C by substituting in 3 and 5 for x in the equation I've given you :)
