Answer:

(n + 6)(n - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n² + 4n - 12

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 12) which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term (+ 4)

The factors are + 6 and - 2 , since

6 × - 2 = - 12 and 6 - 2 = + 4

Then

n² + 4n - 12 = (n + 6)(n - 2) ← in factored form

What is 10.04 rounded to nearest tenth?

ivolga24 [154]

The next larger tenth is 10.1 .
The next smaller tenth is 10.0 .

10.04 is nearer to 10.0 than it is to 10.1 .

So the nearest tenth is 10.0 .

Please find the missing angle

Sergeu [11.5K]

360 degrees in a circle

360 degrees minus 90 degrees (the right angle of the square) = 270 degrees

270 degrees divided by 2 = 135 degrees

f = 135 degrees

Find the term indecent of x in the expansion of (x^2-1/x)^6

Mars2501 [29]

By the binomial theorem,

$\displaystyle \left(x^2-\frac1x\right)^6 = \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k (x^2)^{6-k} \left(-\frac1x\right)^k = \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k (-1)^k x^{12-3k}$

I assume you meant to say "independent", not "indecent", meaning we're looking for the constant term in the expansion. This happens for k such that

12 - 3k = 0 ===> 3k = 12 ===> k = 4

which corresponds to the constant coefficient

$\dbinom 64 (-1)^4 = \dfrac{6!}{4!(6-4)!} = \boxed{15}$
