Answer:

3x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

12x^4 + 27x^3 + 6x^2

The coefficients of the variables are 12, 27 and 6.  The greatest common factor (GCF) of these numbers is 3.

\implies 3(4x^4 +9x^3 + 2x^2)

From inspection, the GCF of the variables is x^2

\implies 3x^2(4x^2+9x + 2)

Therefore, the GCF of the terms in the polynomial is 3x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We're going to be factoring:

12 {x}^{4}  + 27 {x}^{3}  + 6 {x}^{2}

We know that the GCF between 12, 27, and 6 is 3.

We also know that the GCF of x^4, x^3, and x^2 is x^2.

<u>When factoring:</u>

  • Use both of our GCFs, 3 and x^2 (3x^2).
  • Divide our coefficients by the GCF.

3{x}^{2} (4 {x}^{2}  + 9x + 2)

We know 3x^2 is the correct option since the polynomial is factored completely.

Determine the exact solution to the following in radians.
Sloan [31]
3sinx+1=sinx
2sinx+1=0
2sinx=-1
sinx=-1/2
x=sin^-1 (1/2) = 30 = \pi/6 (when finding the inverse, always take the positive value, ignore the negative sign)
x is therefore negative in 3rd and 4th quadrant
Therefore values of x are:
180+30=210 = 7\pi/6
360-3=330 = 11\pi/6
