I think that there are 4 termms if we condider onlu plus and minus as operators.
Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
Given:
pool length : 10 yards
pool width : 8 yards
Area = 10 yds * 8 yds = 80 yd²
(10 + 2x)(8 + 2x) = 120
10(8 + 2x) + 2x(8+2x) = 120
80 + 20x + 16x + 4x² = 120
4x² + 36x + 80 - 120 = 0
4x² + 36x - 40 = 0
4(x² + 9x - 10) = 0
4(x + 10)(x - 1) = 0
x + 10 = 0
x = -10
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
the width of the deck is 1 yard
Answer:
14.87 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of all right triangles share the same relationship known as the Pythagorean Theorem a² + b² = c². Substitute the lengths of the triangle into the theorem and solve for the unknown side. Since the problem does have an attached a picture, assume that a = 10, b = 11, and c = x.
10² + 11² = x²
100 + 121 = 221²
221 = x²
√221 = √x²
14.87 = x
