<span> (x + 3) • (x - 12)
</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>x2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -9x </span> its coefficient is <span> -9 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -36 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 1</span> • -36 = -36</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of -36 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -9 </span>.
<span><span> -36 + 1 = -35</span><span> -18 + 2 = -16</span><span> -12 + 3 = -9 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -12 and 3
<span>x2 - 12x</span> + 3x - 36
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (x-12)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
3 • (x-12)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x+3) • (x-12)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :<span> (x + 3) • (x - 12)</span>
well if that's in a math problem then its division. Because you are sharing equally.
Answer:
width = 1.77845 ft
length = 7.1138 ft
height = 5.691 ft
total cost = $759.09
Step-by-step explanation:
volume = length x width x height
length = 4 width
base of the rectangle = 4 x 1 w = 4w²
72 (volume) = 4w²h
18 = w²h
f(c) = (2 x 4w² x $10) + (2 x wh x $5) + (2 x 4wh x $5)
f(c) = 80w² + 10wh + 40wh
f(c) = 80w² + 50wh
since we need only 1 variable (width), we have to substitute h:
h = 18/w²
f(c) = 80w² + 50w(18/w²) = 80w² + 900/w
f'(c) = 160w + 900/w²
0 = (160w³ + 900)/w²
0 = 160w³ + 900
0 = 20(8w³ + 45)
0 = 8w³ + 45
8w³ = -45
w³ = -45/8
w = ∛-45/8 = -1.77845 and 1.77845
since w cannot be negative, then it must be 1.77845
