=> 9x² - 24x + 16

Split the middle term(term with x) in such a manner so that the product of those parts is equal to the product of term with x² and constant. Here, those parts are 12 & 12 as 12*12 = 9*16.

=> 9x² - 24x + 16

=> 9x² - (12 + 12)x + 16

=> 9x² - 12x - 12x + 16

=> 3x(3x - 4) - 4(3x - 4)

=> (3x - 4)(3x - 4)

Method 2

=> 9x² - 24x + 16

=> (3x)² - 2(3x*4) + 4²

=> (3x - 4)²

=> (3x - 4)(3x - 4)

Method 3

In case if you can't find the factors of the middle term.

Say f(x) = 0, find the zeroes using quadratic formula. Zeroes of this eqⁿ are [-(-24) ± √24²-4(9)(16)] / 2(9) = 4/3 & 4/3

Therefore, f(x) = (x - 4/3)(x - 4/3) = (3x - 4)(3x - 4)/9

Ignore the numeric constant.

f(x) = (3x - 4)(3x - 4)

The answer=>

For this,we need to know what's Middle splitting method

  • In order to factorize x² + bx + c we have to find numbers p and q such that p + q = b and pq = c. After finding p and q, we split the middle term in the quadratic as <em><u>px + qx and</u></em> get desired factors by grouping the terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x {}^{2}  - 24x + 16 \\  =  > 9x {}^{2}  - 12x - 12x + 16 \\  =  > 3x(3x - 4) - 4(3x - 4) \\  =  > (3x - 4)(3x - 4) \\ so... \\ x = eitherway \: 4

i.e

Alpha= Beta = 4

horsena [70]

Answer:

10℉

Step-by-step explanation:

9,000 feet - 4000 feet  (because the camp is 4000 feet above sea level) = 5000 feet

for every 1000 ft you decrease by 3.6℉ therefore 5(3.6) = 18 degrees

when you get to the top it is -8℉ to find out the temp at base camp you just add 18 ℉ to the final tempreture

-8 +18 = 10℉

If 12(5r + 6t) = w, then in terms of w, what is 48(30r + 36t)
Rudiy27
The 12 is multiplied by 4 to get 48, and the (5r + 6t) is multiplied by 6 to get (30r + 36t), therefore you are multiplying the outside by 4 and the inside by 6, putting those together is 24 for a factor. If 12(5r + 6t) = w, then 48(30r + 36t) is equal to 24w.
