Let the number be x
Equation:
12 + 5x = -3
Answer: The equation is 12 + 5x = -3
Solve it:
5x = -3 - 12
5x = -15
x = -15 ÷ 5
x = -3
Answer: The number is -3.
Answer:
P(x) = -5(x² - 12)² + 405
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x) = -5x² + 120x - 315
Factor out -5 from the first two terms
P(x) = -5(x² - 24x) - 315
Complete the square
P(x) = -5(x - 12)² - (-5(-12)²) -315
P(x) = -5(x - 12)² + 720 - 315
P(x) = -5(x - 12)² + 405
Hey there!
In order to multiply these polynomials together, you will take both terms of the first polynomial and multiply them by each term in the second polynomial. You can then combine any like terms to get your final answer.
(2x² – 5x)(4x² – 12x + 10)
2x² × 4x² = 8x⁴
2x² × –12x = –24x³
2x² × 10 = 20x²
–5x × 4x² = –20x³
–5x × –12x = 60x²
–5x × 10 = –50x
Write all of these terms together. You can rearrange the similar ones to be next to each other.
8x⁴ – 24x³ – 20x³ + 20x² + 60x² – 50x
Just add or subtract the terms to simplify, if they can be.
8x⁴ – 44x³ + 80x² – 50x
(8x⁴ – 44x³ + 80x² – 50x) will be your final answer.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
