Hi there! :)
Answer:
m∠BGC = 16x - 4
m∠CGD = 2x + 13
m∠BGC + m∠CGD sums up to 90°, therefore:
(16x - 4) + (2x + 13) = 90
Combine like terms and simplify:
16x + 2x - 4 + 13 = 90
18x - 4 + 13 = 90
18x + 9 = 90
18x = 81
18x/18 = 81/8
x = 4.5
Factor the following:
2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9
Factor terms by grouping. 2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9 = (2 x^3 + x^2) + (-18 x - 9) = x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1)
Factor 2 x + 1 from x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 9)
x^2 - 9 = x^2 - 3^2:
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 3^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 3^2 = (x - 3) (x + 3):
Answer: (x - 3) (x + 3) (2 x + 1) thus the Answer is C.
The answer would be 893.4
Answer:
8x² + 11x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
M - N
= 5x² + 7x - 4 - 1(- 3x² - 4x + 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1
= 5x² + 7x - 4 + 3x² + 4x - 5 ← collect like terms
= 8x² + 11x - 9
