Quadratic_Equations/694634: 9x^2-36x+36 factored 1 solutions Answer 428098 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-12-15 20:06:34 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Start with the given expression. Factor out the GCF . Now let's try to factor the inner expression --------------------------------------------------------------- Looking at the expression , we can see that the first coefficient is , the second coefficient is , and the last term is . Now multiply the first coefficient by the last term to get . Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to (the previous product) and add to the second coefficient ? To find these two numbers, we need to list all of the factors of (the previous product). Factors of : 1,2,4 -1,-2,-4 Note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations. These factors pair up and multiply to . 1*4 = 4 2*2 = 4 (-1)*(-4) = 4 (-2)*(-2) = 4 Now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient : First Number Second Number Sum 1 4 1+4=5 2 2 2+2=4 -1 -4 -1+(-4)=-5 -2 -2 -2+(-2)=-4 From the table, we can see that the two numbers and add to (the middle coefficient). So the two numbers and both multiply to and add to Now replace the middle term with . Remember, and add to . So this shows us that . Replace the second term with . Group the terms into two pairs. Factor out the GCF from the first group. Factor out from the second group. The goal of this step is to make the terms in the second parenthesis equal to the terms in the first parenthesis. Combine like terms. Or factor out the common term Condense the terms. -------------------------------------------------- So then factors further to =============================================================== Answer: So completely factors to . In other words, . Note: you can check the answer by expanding to get or by graphing the original expression and the answer (the two graphs should be identical).

Parallelograms/694176: If you can not answer all of my question it is fine but i would like some help on these problems: The choices for the answer are True or False: 1.If three points are collinear, then they are coplanar 2.Any two points are collinear 3.Given two points, there is more than one plane containing them 4. The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle bisects the base and is perependicular to the base 5. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are acute 6. An altitude of a triangle lies in the interior of the triangle 7. If three triangles have unequal measures, then no two sides of the triangle are congruent 8. Every right angle has two acute angles 9. The longest side of any triangle is called the hypotenuse 10. The median of a triangle bisects the side to which its drawn 11. Each side of an angle is a ray 12. The diagonals of a square are perpendicular to each other. Thanks 1 solutions Answer 427778 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-12-13 21:36:46 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'll do the first six to get you started. 1.If three points are collinear, then they are coplanar ... false (think of a line going through a plane but the line isn't all in the plane) 2.Any two points are collinear ... true by definition 3.Given two points, there is more than one plane containing them ... true, you need 3 points to uniquely determine a plane 4. The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle bisects the base and is perependicular to the base ... true, this takes a while to explain and prove, but it can be done. 5. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are acute ... true, a picture may help see this 6. An altitude of a triangle lies in the interior of the triangle ... false, this is sometimes the case, but sometimes not. Think obtuse triangles. I'll let you do the rest. 7. If three triangles have unequal measures, then no two sides of the triangle are congruent 8. Every right angle has two acute angles 9. The longest side of any triangle is called the hypotenuse 10. The median of a triangle bisects the side to which its drawn 11. Each side of an angle is a ray 12. The diagonals of a square are perpendicular to each other.

Complex_Numbers/694174: find all 12 solutions to x^12=1 Already know 1 and -1 are solutions, but I'm not sure how to factor the equation. 1 solutions Answer 427775 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-12-13 21:32:51 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hint: x^12=1 x^12 - 1 = 0 (x^4)^3 - 1^3 = 0 (x^4 - 1)((x^4)^2 + x^4*1 + 1^2) = 0 (x^4 - 1)(x^8 + x^4 + 1) = 0 (x^2 - 1)(x^2 + 1)(x^8 + x^4 + 1) = 0 (x - 1)(x + 1)(x^2 + 1)(x^8 + x^4 + 1) = 0 Note: To solve x^8 + x^4 + 1 = 0, let z = x^4 to get z^2 + z + 1 = 0. Solve for z and use this to find solutions to x.

Start with the given inequality. Combine like terms on the left side. Add to both sides. Combine like terms on the right side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Answer: So the solution is

Angles/694165: If you can not answer all of my question it is fine but i would like some help on these problems: The choices for the answer are Sometimes, Always, or Never: 1. A ray has two endpoints 2. An angle is equal to its supplement 3. A right triangle is isosceles 4. The complement of an acute angle is an obtuse angle 5. Two lines perpendicular to a third line are skew 6. Two skew lines are coplanar 7. If two angles have a common side, the angles are adjacent 8. The supplement of an obtuse angle is an obtuse angle Thanks 1 solutions Answer 427767 by jim_thompson5910(28595)   on 2012-12-13 21:08:55 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. A ray has two endpoints .... never It only has one endpoint. Always. ------------------------------------------------------- 2. An angle is equal to its supplement Sometimes and this is only true if you have a right angle ------------------------------------------------------- 3. A right triangle is isosceles sometimes only if you have a right isosceles triangle ------------------------------------------------------- 4. The complement of an acute angle is an obtuse angle This is never true draw a picture to see this, but you'll see the other angle isn't obtuse since it's acute as well. ------------------------------------------------------- 5. Two lines perpendicular to a third line are skew This is sometimes true. It depends on if you are in 3d space or the plane. If you are in the plane, then it's never true. However I'm saying "sometimes" because I'm thinking the problem is thinking 3d space. ------------------------------------------------------- 6. Two skew lines are coplanar This is never true because if it were, then the two lines would intersect and not be skew. ------------------------------------------------------- I'll let you tackle the last two.
