Factor completely x3 + 2x2 – 15x

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: x^3 + 2x^2 - 15x

first we can factor out an x
x(x^2 + 2x - 15)

then we find a pair of numbers that multiply to -15 and add up to 2

this would be 5 and -3
because 5 times -3 = -15
and -3 + 5 = 2

we would then get
x(x-3)(x+5)

this would be you answer :)
Answer 2
Answer:

Hi Lisa


x³ + 2x² - 15x

= x( x-3)(x+5)


I hope that's help:)


Have a great summer :)

Evaluate 15 − 4 + (7 − 5)2 = __________.

Answers

26? right? cause 15 - 4 is 11, 7 - 5 is 2, 11 + 2 is 13, and 13 x 2 is 26
15-4=11 plus
(7-5)= 2
if is times 2 is 32
if is plus 2 is 15
if is minus 2 is 11 
and if is divided by 2 is 6.5

Which equation is quadratic in form?6(x + 2)2 + 8x + 2 + 1 = 0
6x4 + 7x2 – 3 = 0
5x6 + x4 + 12 = 0
x9 + x3 – 10 = 0

Answers

Answer:

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given four equations and we need to tell which one of them is quadratic

Case1:

6(x+2)^2+8(x+2)+1

In this we will use the formula (a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab

Here, a=x and b=2

The equation will become 6(x^2+2^2+4x)+8x+16+1

Hence, after simplification equation will become

6x^2+24+24x+8x+16+1

6x^2+32x+41 which is a quadratic equation because quadratic equation is the equation is the equation which has degree 2.

In this equation degree is 2 hence, quadratic

Case2:

6x^4+7x^2-3  is not quadratic since, degree in this equation is 4 not 2

Hence, biquadratic not quadratic

Case3:

5x^6+x^4+12 is not a quadratic equation since, degree in this equation is 6.

Hence, not quadratic

Case4:

x^9+x^3-10 is not quadratic since, degree in this equation is 9

Hence, not quadratic

Therefore, Option A is correct

A quadratic equation is a polynomial with an order of two. Its general form is ax² + bx + c = 0. From the choices given, the first option seems to be the quadratic equation. Simplifying the equation gives 6x² + 18x + 27 = 0. 

Which of the following statements is true?

Answers

Answer:

option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Checking equation A

(9x^3 + 12x) + (16x^3 -4x+1)= 24x^3 +16x-1\n9x^3+16x^3+12x-4x+1=24x^3+16x-1\n25x^3+8x+1\neq 24x^3+16x-1

Checking equation B

(3x+2x^2-4)-(x^2+x-5)=2x+x^2-9\n3x-x+2x^2-x^2-4+5=2x+x^2-9\n2x+x^2+1\neq 2x+x^2-9

Checking equation C

(10x^3+2x^2-11)+(9x^2+2x-2)=10x^3+11x^2+2x-13\n10x^3+2x^2+9x^2+2x-11-2=10x^3+11x^2+2x-13\n10x^3+11x^2+2x-13=10x^3+11x^2+2x-13

Checking equation D

(-7x^2+12)-(5-4x^2)=11x^2-17\n-7x^2+4x^2+12-5=11x^2-17\n-3x^2+7\neq 11x^2-17

Hence, only option C is correct.

Solve this equation: –9h – 6 + 12h + 40 = 22. A. h = 24 B. h = – 4 C. h = 4 D. h = –4/7

Answers

In the equation: -9h - 6 + 12h + 40 = 22, collecting like terms gives: -9h + 12h = 22 + 6 - 40 which gives 3h = -12. They we divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get 3h / 3 = -12 / 3 which gives h = -4. Therefore, the solution to the given equation is h = -4 (option B).
