Factor this polynomial completely

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elina [12.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(x-2)(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

We look for two integers which multiply to +12 but add to -8 and we find those numbers by looking at the factors of 12={1,2,3,4,6,12}

We find that by picking 6 and 2,6×2=12 but 6+2 is not -8 so we tweak that as -6 and-2

By so doing, now -6×-2=12,-6+(-2)=-8

so we factor to get (x-2)(x-6)

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with center (-5,-7) that passes through the point (7,5).
shutvik [7]

Answer:

(x + 5)² + (y + 7)² = 288

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The radius is the distance from the centre (- 5, - 7) to the point on the circle (7, 5)

Use the distance formula to calculate r

r = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 5)

r = \sqrt{(7+5)^2+(5+7)^2} = \sqrt{12^2+12^2} = \sqrt{288}

Hence

(x - (- 5))² + (y - (- 7))² = (\sqrt{288})², that is

(x + 5)² + (y + 7)² = 288

the perimeter of the rectangle is 130 meters. If the longest side is one less than twice the shortest side, what is the length o
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

L=43 and W=22

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 130 meters. We also know the longest side called the length is 1 less than twice the width or 2w-1. The width is w. To find perimeter, you must use the formula P=2l+2w.

130 = 2(2w-1) +2w

130 = 4w -2 +2w

130 = 6w -2

132 = 6w

132/6 = w

22 = w

So the length is l=2w-1=2(22)-1 = 43
