Answer:
(x + 3)(3x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x² + 5x - 12
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 3 × - 12 = - 36 and sum = + 5
The factors are + 9 and - 4
Use these factors to split the x- term
3x² + 9x - 4x - 12 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 3x(x + 3) - 4(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term
= (x + 3)(3x - 4)
Thus
3x² + 5x - 12 = (x + 3)(3x - 4) ← in factored form
Answer:
6^2 = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The number that best approximates the square of 6 is 36, its actual value. The point so labelled is the appropriate point on the number line.
The sum of 10 and a subtraction of 4 from 6.
The hypotenuse must always be c
Answer:
X =30/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The first way would be something like:
-7x + 10 = -20. The first thing we would do is to subtract 10 from both sides.
Therefore,
-7x+10-10=-20-10
Simplified, we get
-7x=-30
Remove the negative symbols
7x =30
x=30/7
Second example:
10=7x - 20
Add 20 to both sides.
10+20=7x-20+20
Simplified,
30=7x
x = 30/7
