Lets name the largest number as x
smallest number is half the largest , therefore its x/2 = 0.5x
then middle number is 3/4 the largest , therefore its 3/4x = 0.75x
the sum of the three numbers are 162
the three numbers added are
x + 0.5x + 0.75x = 162
2.25 x = 162
x = 72
the largest number is 72
then middle number 0.75 x = 0.75 x 72 = 54
smallest number is 0.5x = 0.5 x 72 = 36
answer is - 36,54,72
Answer:
(x+9)(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
We wish to factor x²+13x+36 into the form of (x+p)(x+q) where p+q=13 and pq=36.
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12. 18, 36
Notice that 9+4=13 as 9*4=36, which satisfies the values of p and q
This means x²+13x+36 can be factored into (x+9)(x+4)
Answer:
x^2 -20x + 100
Step-by-step explanation:
How this works is that you multiply each number by every other number, so.
(x+a)(x+b) so you do x times x since the parenthesis multiplies them together. Then you do x times b.
Then you do a times x since a is the next number in the first pair. then you do a times b.
(* is the sign for multiplication for the sake of simplifying it and to be easier than doing something like x x x where you are multiplying x together with x.)
So in the expression (x + a)(x + b) you are basically doing
x * x + x * b + a * x + a * b
In your case, a is = to -10 and b is equal to -10
So your expression would be
x * x + x * -10 + -10 * x + -10 * -10
so x times x is x^2 and x times -10 is -10x You are doing -10 * x twice so it is -20x and -10 times -10 is 100
So the final equation would be x^2 plus -20x plus 100 or
x^2 + (-20x) + 100
which is
x^2 -20x + 100
