What is the greatest common factor of the terms of the polynomial below? 8x^4 - 12x^3 + 20x^2

Daniel [21]3 years ago

Answer: I think the greatest common factor is 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the numerical common factors. Which are 8, -12, and 20. Find the variable common factors for x^4, x^3, and x^2. Multiply them together. Then break down the factors on both sides and pick the biggest one. Finally multiply them together. (I’m sorry, I’m very bad at explaining things.)

A hiker climbs a 5-mile trail up a mountain in 2 hours. On the return trip downhill, she walks the same trail and returns to her

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

3.33 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance traveled by the hiker is 5 * 2 = 10 miles, and the total time travelled is 2 + 1 = 3 hours.

So, to find the average speed of the entire trip, we can use the formula:

distance = speed * time

With distance = 10 and time = 3, we have:

10 = speed * 3

speed = 10/3 = 3.33 miles per hour.

If a(x)=2x-4 and b(x) =x+2, which of the following expressions produces a quadratic function?

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

$(ab)(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we have

$a(x)=2x-4\\b(x)=x+2$

we know that

(ab)(x) is equal to the product of a(x) and b(x)

so

$(ab)(x)=(2x-4)(x+2)$

Applying distributive property

$(ab)(x)=2x(x)+2x(2)-4(x)-4(2)$

$(ab)(x)=2x^2+4x-4x-8$

$(ab)(x)=2x^2-8$

This is a quadratic equation

The other expressions not produce a quadratic equation
