18x + 24 6(3x + 4) is factored fully
18x + 12y = 72 to get x-int. put y=0 18x + (12)(0) = 72 18x = 72 x = 4 your x-intercept is 4. this is the place where the line goes through the x-axis.
x² - 18x - 4 = o x² - 18x = 4 x² - 18x + (18/2)² = 4 + (18/2)² x² - 18x + 81 = 4 + 81 (x - 9)² = 85 x - 9 = ±√85 x = 9 ±√85 x = 9 + √85 or x = 9 - √85 if you are still confused, i want you to follow the related link that explains the concept of completing the square clearly.
No 9xx-18x+36 9(xx-2x+4) xx-2x+4 (doesn't factor evenly)
x=-1
18x + 18y - 4
x=4 and x =7Improved Answer:-x2-18x-40 = (x+2)(x-20) when factored
(2x4) + (8x3) + 18x 8 + 24 + 18x 32 + 18x
-x=-2
x = -4/3
4xx-18x+8 2(2xx-9x+4) 2(2xx-8x-1x+4) 2(2x(x-4)-1(x-4)) 2(2x-1)(x-4)
