Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Synthetic division is one way to determine whether or not a given number is a root of the quadratic. x^2 − 12x − 20 can be rewritten as x^2 - 12x + 36 - 36 - 20, or (x - 6)^2 - 56, which does not have integer solutions:
(x - 6)^2 - 56 = 0 becomes (x - 6)^2 = 56, which works out to x - 6 = ± 2√14.
None of the possible roots suggested in this problem turns out to be an actual root.
correct response: PRIME
This is how I would do it, hope this helps!
Answer:
if i'm right ted is 14 and ed is 21
Step-by-step explanation:
if ed is 7 years older than ted and is 3/2 times eds age, than we have to find out how much dose 2 represent in the equation 3/2 so we know that ed is seven years older than ted. so that means that if the equation 3/2 was 1/2, 1 would represent 7 years. (i hope your following me) so if 1 represents 7 than 2 must represent 14 and that would be the age of ted because in the equation 3/2 the 2 would represent teds age. and if the 2 represents teds age than 3 would be eds age. so 7 x 3 = 21. (this is my first time answering a question so sorry if i'm confusing)
