Answer:

15a² + 21a + 19 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4a + 3)² = (a + 5)(a - 2)

(4a + 3)(4a + 3) = (a + 5)(a - 2 ) ← expand both sides using FOIL

16a² + 24a + 9 = a² + 3a - 10 ( subtract a² + 3a - 10 from both sides )

16a² - a² + 24a - 3a + 9 + 10 = 0 ← collect like terms

15a² + 21a + 19 = 0

Factor the given quadratic function x2 + 9x = 36.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

(x + 12)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 9x = 36 \\ {x}^{2} + 9x - 36 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + 12x - 3x - 36 = 0 \\ x(x + 12) - 3(x + 12) = 0 \\ (x + 12)(x - 3) = 0$

The ratio of Dawn to Mandy's savings is 6 : 7. The ratio of Mandy to Belle's savings is 2 : 3. Find the ratio of Dawn to Belle's

Mila [183]

The savings are illustrations of ratio, and the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings in the simplest ratio is 4 : 7

<h3>How to determine the ratio?</h3>

The given ratios are:

Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7

Mandy : Belle = 2 : 3

Multiply the second ratio by 3.5.

So, we have:

Mandy : Belle = 2 * 3.5 : 3 * 3.5

Evaluate

Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5

So, we have:

Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7

Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5

Mandy's ratios in both equation are the same.

So, we have:

Dawn : Mandy : Belle = 6 : 7 : 10.5

Remove Mandy's ratio

Dawn : Belle = 6 : 10.5

Simplify

Dawn : Belle = 4 : 7

Hence, the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings is 4 : 7
