The dimensions of the prism can be 2x, 2x+3 and x+6.
We first factor out the GCF of the trinomial. The GCF of the coefficients is 2. Each term has an x in common as well, so the GCF is 2x.
Factoring out the 2x, we have
2x(2x²+15x+18).
To factor the remaining trinomial, we find factors of 2*18=36 that sum to 15. 12*3 = 36 and 12+3 = 15. We split up 15x into 12x and 3x:
2x(2x²+12x+3x+18)
Now we group together the first two terms in parentheses and the last two:
2x((2x²+12x)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the first group:
2x(2x(x+6)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the second group:
2x(2x(x+6)+3(x+6))
Factoring out what these have in common,
2x(x+6)(2x+3)
You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.
Answer:
y=-1/3x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no need for any specific answers, but here is one that could logically work out. Since the graph is going left/down, it has a negative slope, so -1/3 would be reasonable. The graph doesn't cross the origin and crosses above it, so this equation must have a positive 'b' value. In this case, I chose 8. y=-1/3+8 could represent Laila's graph.
Question:
An isosceles triangle has a base of 9.6 units long. If the congruent side lengths have measures to the first decimal place, what is the possible length of the sides? 9.7, 4.9, or 4.7
Answer:
4.9 is the shortest possible length of the sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The base of the triangle base = 9.2 units
To Find:
The shortest possible length of the sides = ?
Solution:
The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.
So According to the theorem
In the given option 4.9 is the shortest length greater than 4.8 that can be possible.
Answer:
x = 5 and x = -19
Step-by-step explanation:
You're on the right track. It's the "discriminant" that tells you what you want to know here. Before starting, arrange the terms of your quadratic in descending orders of x: 5x^2 + 14x - 19 = 0 (Note that I assumed you meant 14x instead of just 14).
Then the coefficients of this quadratic are a = 5, b = 14 and c = -19.
You are referring to the "quadratic formula." It states this:
-b ± √(b²-4ac)
x = -----------------------
2a
So, we insert the a, b and c values as indicated above:
-14 ± √( 14² - 4[5][-19] ) -14 ± √(196 - 4[5][-19] ) -14 ± √576
x = ----------------------------------- = ---------------------------------- = ----------------------
2(10) 20 20
This comes out to:
x = (-14 + 24) / 2 and x = (-14 - 24) / 2
or:
x = 5 and x = -19
