Example: <span>the second step in the process for factoring the trinomial x^2-3x-40 is to:</span> <span>Well you really should find the sum of the factors of −40 (not 40) </span>
<span>But before you can do that, you need to LIST the factors of −40 (not 40) </span>
<span>−1 * 40 </span>
<span>−2 * 20 </span>
<span>−4 * 10 </span>
<span>−5 * 8 </span>
<span>−8 * 5 </span>
<span>−10 * 4 </span>
<span>−20 * 2 </span>
<span>−40 * 1 </span>
<span>NOW we find the sum of the factors of −40 </span>
<span>−1 + 40 = 39 </span>
<span>−2 + 20 = 18 </span>
<span>−4 + 10 = 6 </span>
<span>−5 + 8 = 3 </span>
<span>−8 + 5 = −3 </span>
<span>−10 + 4 = −6 </span>
<span>−20 + 2 = −18 </span>
<span>−40 + 1 = −39 </span>
<span>Then we choose the factors of −40 whose sum is −3 ---> −8 and 5 </span>
<span>x^2 − 3x − 40 = (x − 8) (x + 5) </span>
<span>So FIRST step is B, SECOND step is C, and final step is factoring. </span>
What Rita did was combine these 2 steps together, which you will learn to do as you get better at factoring.
Given:
The graph of a quadratic function passes through the points (5,31) (3,11) (0,11).
To find:
The equation of the quadratic function.
Solution:
A quadratic function is defined as:
...(i)
It is passes through the point (0,11). So, substitute
in (i).


Putting
in (i), we get
...(ii)
The quadratic function passes through the point (5,31). So, substitute
in (ii).

Divide both sides by 5.
...(iii)
The quadratic function passes through the point (3,11). So, substitute
in (ii).
Divide both sides by 3.
...(iv)
Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get




Putting
in (iv), we get



Putting
in (ii), we get
Therefore, the required quadratic equation is
.
Answer:
B: 3h
Step-by-step explanation:
Because every line on that cube or any cube will be the same length, width, and height.

(3/4) / (1/12)...when dividing with fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
3/4 * 12/1 =
36/4 =
