In plain and short, nope, their bases must be the same in order for the exponents to be summed up, whilst keeping the same base.
Answer:
(x + 4) (x - 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the following:
x^2 - 5 x - 36
The factors of -36 that sum to -5 are 4 and -9. So, x^2 - 5 x - 36 = (x + 4) (x - 9):
Answer: (x + 4) (x - 9)
Is this Long multiplication?
You can work it out by using trial and error
so you get
x=3 , y=2
(7, 5)
because u round (6.5, 4.5) to the nearest tenth
