I’m assuming what you’re asking here is how to *factor* this expression. For that, let’s rearrange the expression into a more familiar form:
-c^2-4c+21
From here, we’ll factor out a -1 so that we have:
-(c^2+4c-21)
Let’s focus on the quadratic expression inside the parentheses. To find our factors (c + x)(c + y), we’ll need to find two terms x and y that multiply together to make -21 and add together to make 4. It turns out that the numbers -3 and 7 work out perfectly for that purpose (-3 x 7 = -21 and 7 + (-3) = 4), so substituting them in for x and y, we have:
(c + (-3))(c + 7)
(c - 3)(c + 7)
And adding back on the negative from a few steps earlier:
-(c - 3)(c + 7)
Could you zoom out a little maybe? it looks like you cut off something in front of dot
Answer:
The answer would be D, 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the midpoint of (1,-4) and (7,1) to find the rest stop. To do this add the x values and divide by 2, then add the y values and divide by 2. (4,-1.5) is the midpoint.
To find the distance, use the distance formula then multiply the result by 5.38. The distance is 42 miles
Answer:
the answer is 9/2 = 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
When yo add all the halves up you get 9/2
