Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> 1 • 4 = 4</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span> </span></span>
<span><span>-4 + -1 = -5</span><span> -2 + -2 = -4 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and -2
<span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
b • (b-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(b-2) • (b-2)
Which is the desired factorization
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
is in <em>fourth</em> quadrant.
is always positive in 4th quadrant and
is always negative in 4th quadrant.
Also, we know the following identity about
and
:

Using \theta_1 in place of \theta:

We are given that 

is in <em>4th quadrant </em>so
is negative.
So, value of

The first thing we know is that all the answers equal 99, so we cannot cross any answer off, however, what we want to know is what answer (after distribution) looks like 36 + 63...
A.) 11(3 + 6) > 33 + 66
Does 33+66 look like 36+63?
NO
B.) 9(4 + 7) > 36 + 63
Does 36+63 look like 36+63?
YES
C.) 11(4 + 5) > 44 + 55
Does 44+55 look like 36+63?
NO
D.) 3(15 + 18) > 45 + 54
Does 45+54 look like 36+63?
NO
So...
The answer is: B.) 9(4 + 7)
Answer:
S(-2, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached below,=. Frim the diagram, the coordinate of R and T are (-5, 3) and (-1, -5) respectively. If the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, the coordinate of S can be gotten using the midpoint segment formula as shown;
S(X, Y) = {(ax1+bx2/a+b), (ay1+by1/a+b)} where;
x1 = -5, y1 = 3, x2 = -1, y2 = -5, a = 3 and b =1
Substitute the values into the formula;
X = ax2+bx1/a+b
X = 3(-1)+1(-5)/3+1
X = -3-5/4
X = -8/4
X = -2
Similarly;
Y = ay2+by1/a+b
Y = 3(-5)+1(3)/3+1
Y = -15+3/4
Y = -12/4
Y = -3
Hence the coordinate of the point (X, Y) is (-2, -3)
Answer:
The answer is option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Reflection in the y axis is
(x , y) → ( - x , y)
The coordinates of A are ( 2, -5)
When it's reflected in the y axis it becomes
( - 2 , - 5)
