Factor this trinomial completely. -12x^2+45x+12

Mathematics

Amanda [17]2 years ago

Step-by-step Answer:

Step 1:

Extract factor(s) common to all terms.

In this case, the HCF is 3, so the expression is written

-12x^2+45x+12 = -3(4x^2-15x-4)

The negative sign was also exrracted to give a positive leading coefficient, which is easier to work with.

Step 2, group the coefficient in such a way that there is a common factor.

Leaving the factor -4 for the moment, and concentrate on the coefficients in parentheses, write the original expression as

4x^2 - 15x -4  

= 4x^2 -16x

          +   x -4

= 4x*(x-4) + 1*(x-4)

extract (x-4) as a common factor

= (x-4)(4x+1)

Step 3:

Combine all the factors to get

-3(x-4)(4x+1)

=3(4-x)(4x+1)

as the complete factoring of the given expression.

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the 1st and 2nd number is 344
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

three consecutive odd integers are.

171, 173, 175

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first term of odd integer,

Therefore, the second consecutive odd integers = x+2

Similarly, the third consecutive odd integers = x+4

Given:

The sum of the first term and second term is 344.

first term + second term = 344

Here first term is x and second term is x+2.

x+(x+2)=344

2x+2=344

2x=344-2

x=\frac{342}{2}

x=171

Therefore, the first odd integers is 171.

And the second consecutive odd integers = x+2=171+2=173

Similarly, the third consecutive odd integers = x+4=171+4=175

1.) top row: 100 200 300 400 500 600. Bottom row: 5 10 15 20 25 30
2. Each ratio is just the top row divided by the bottom row. So the second thing in the ratio would be 200/10, the third one 300/15, etc. Each ratio is equal to 20.
3.) if x is gallons of gas used, y is distance driven. the equation that describes this relationship is y=20x.
