Answer:
(D) -k2 + k - 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Pulling out like terms :
2.1 Pull out like factors :
-k2 + k - 13 = -1 • (k2 - k + 13)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.2 Factoring k2 - k + 13
The first term is, k2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -k its coefficient is -1 .
The last term, "the constant", is +13
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 13 = 13
Step-2 : Find two factors of 13 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -1 .
-13 + -1 = -14
-1 + -13 = -14
1 + 13 = 14
13 + 1 = 14
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
-k2 + k - 13

Add them all up and if they add up to 180 then your side lengths are good
Answer:
$3,000 was invested in the account that gained 13%
$17,500 was invested in the account that lost 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount in both accounts be x and y
x for the first and y for the second
Adding both is 20,500
x + y = 20,500 •••••(i)
First account earned 13% profit
= 13/100 * x = 0.13x
Second account, a loss of 10%
= -10/100 * y = -0.1y
Total loss of -1,360
This is;
-0.1y + 0.13x = -1,360 •••••••(ii)
From i, x = 20,500-y
Insert this into ii
-0.1y + 0.13(20,500-y) = -1,360
-0.1y + 2665 -0.13y = -1360
-0.23y = -1360-2665
-0.23y = -4025
y = -4025/-0.23
y = 17,500
To get x, we have
x = 20,500 -y
x = 20,500- 17,500
x = 3,000
15 is the answer
Because
300-75= 225
225/15=15
Therefore 15 is the answer
