Answer:
(y + 14)(y - 14)
Step-by-step explanation:
A difference of squares has the general form
a³ - b² and factors as
(a + b)(a - b)
Given
y² - 196
y² = (y)² ⇒ a = y and 196 = 14² ⇒ b = 14
y² - 196
= y² - 14² = (y + 14)(y - 14) ← difference of squares
Answer:
x = 7.33
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 15 = 7
3x = 7 + 15
3x = 22
x = 7.33
Answer:
y = -5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The only lines that have a slope of 0 are horizontal lines. Horizontal lines are always in the form y = c where c is a constant. Basically, on a horizontal line, no matter what x is, y will always be the constant c. Therefore, the x coordinate of our given point does not matter and we only have to look a the y-coordinate, which is -5.5. Therefore, the equation is y = -5.5.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 + 17x +10 =0
(3x+ ) ( x+ ) =0
We need to factor 10 = 2*5 or 1*10
They are positive since we have all positive terms
3*5 = 15+2 = 17
The 5 needs to multiply the 3 so it goes on the outside
(3x+ ) ( x+ 5 ) =0
That leaves the 2 on the inside
(3x+ 2 ) ( x+ 5 ) =0
Using the zero product property
3x+2 =0 x+5=0
3x = -2 x=-5
x = -2/3 x = -5
