Answer:

(x + 3)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x + 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 3 and + 2 , since

3 × 2 = + 6 and + 3 + 2 = + 5 , then

x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form

Which function increases at a faster rate on 0 to infinity, f(x) = x2 or g(x) = 2x? Explain your reasoning.
pochemuha

Using a table of values, the outputs of f(x) for whole numbers are 0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, and so on. For the same input values, g(x) has outputs of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64. Continuing to double the output each time results in larger outputs than those of f(x). The exponential function, g(x), has a constant multiplicative rate of change and will increase at a faster rate than the quadratic function.

What is 8/15 plus 2/5 equal to
anastassius [24]

We have to add 8/15 to 2/5.

To add two fractions we have to make them have the same denominator, so we have to convert 2/5 to have a denominator of 15. To do this, we have to multiply 2/5 by 3 and then we can add the fractions:

\begin{gathered} \frac{8}{15}+\frac{2}{5} \\ \frac{8}{15}+\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{3}{3} \\ \frac{8}{15}+\frac{6}{15} \\ \frac{14}{15} \end{gathered}

Answer: 14/15
