Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Discussion.
Not directly. But the quadratic formula can do it. But that's not your question.
the factors you get must contain the factors for 1 which are 1 and - 1
These factors must add to - 5. There's no way that will happen with 1 and - 1 and you would be creative math if you tried to say that you could make one of the factors (x -1-1-1-1-1-1). That creates a whole new question.
Answer:
10^4
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers are 5 and 12.
Smaller number = x
Larger number = y
x +y =17
y = 3x - 3
x +3x -3 = 17
4x = 20
x = 5
smaller number is 5
y = 3(5) - 3
y = 12
larger number is 12.
Answer:
(x + 9)(x - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + x - 72
= x^2 - 8x + 9x - 72
= (x^2 - 8x) + (9x - 72)
= x(x - 8) + 9(x - 8)
= (x + 9)(x - 8)
Answer:Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
