The factors of 50a³ are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50,
and their products with a, a² and a³ .
The factors of 10a² are 1, 2, 5, 10,
and their products with 'a' and a² .
Their common factors are 1, 2, 5, 10,
and their products with 'a' and a².
Their greatest common factor is 10a² .
(Another way to spot it, easily, is to remember this helpful factoid:
If the smaller number is a factor of the larger number,
then the smaller number is their greatest common factor.
Using the greatest common factor, then . . .
50a³ + 10a² = 10a²(5a + 1) .
Most quadratic functions(which is what you have there, to a degree of 2) are solved using factoring and the zero product law. If you can not factor then you have to use the quadratic formula or graph it. However this one can be factored.
It's pretty simple to just factor it by inspection but I use the chart method, if you know decomposition that works as well.
Factoring gives us,

Then you set each factor to 0 and solve for x,



And the second one,


The solutions to this equation are
x = -1/2, 3
You have to go past the decimal point in since the first number in the tenths place is a zero you can't really round here so you go to the hundreds place and not so three you round down because 3 is closer to 0 then it is 10 so it would be 1. 4

Complete Question :
The surface area of a given cone is 1,885.7143 square inches. What is the slant height?
Answer:
25 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
In the diagram, we are given the following information
Height of the cone = 20 inches
Radius of the cone = 15 inches.
The formula for the slant height of a cone represented by l =
l² = r² + h²
l = √(r² + h²)
l = √(15² + 20²)
l = √(225 + 400)
l = √625
l = 25 inches
Therefore, the slant height of this cone = 25 inches
