Algebra.Com's Answer #395772 by John10(297)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Factor the expression x + 13sqrt(x)+ 12\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "_____________________________________________\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "By looking at the pattern of the equation, we can rewrite it in term of quadratic equation by letting sqrt(x) = Y. Then x = Y^2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So we will rewrite the equation:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Y^2 + 13Y + 12 \n" ); document.write( "(Y + 12)(Y + 1)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now we have factored form in term of Y. We'll write it in term of x:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(sqrt(x) + 12)(sqrt(x) + 1)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope it helps:) \n" ); document.write( "John10 \n" ); document.write( " |
