A courtyard has three walls with widths

Mathematics

Using the greatest common factor, it is found that the greatest dimensions each tile can have is of 3 feet.

---------------------------

  • The widths of the walls are of <u>27 feet, 18 feet and 30 feet.</u>
  • <u>The tiles must fit the width of each wall</u>, thus, the greatest dimension they can have is the greatest common factor of 27, 18 and 30.

To find their greatest common factor, these numbers must be factored into prime factors simultaneously, that is, only being divided by numbers of which all three are divisible, thus:

27 - 18 - 30|3

9 - 6 - 10

No numbers by which all of 9, 6 and 10 are divisible, thus, gcf(27,18,30) = 3 and the greatest dimensions each tile can have is of 3 feet.

If the polynomial 6x6 – 4x5 + 9x – 6 is to be factored by grouping, which step should be taken?
Tems11 [23]
I think you're trying to say 6x^6-4x^5+9x-6. ^ Is a symbol that means the number after it is an exponent.
First step, find the gcf (greatest common factor) between the first two parts. The gcf of 6x^6-4x^5 is 2x^5.
Now take it out. You get
2x^5(3x-2)
If you expand that equation, you will get 6x^6-4x^5 which is why you know it's correct.
Now do the same for the second half.
The gcf for the second two parts is 3.
3(3x-2)
Notice anything? Yep, in both of them, after you take out the gcf, you get (3x-2)
Now, you combine them into one equation
2x^5(3x-2)+3(3x-2)
Then you do this
(2x^5+3)(3x-2)
That's your factored form.

(x+3)^2+5=-28
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Description

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 2 solutions

b. 2 imaginary solutions

c. If the discriminant is positive, then it will have 2 real solutions as the square root of a positive number always equals a positive number. If the discriminant is negative, the quadratic equation will have 2 imaginary solutions, as the square root of a negative number is always imaginary. If the discriminant equals 0, it will have only 1 real solution.
