There are several ways to solve x2-x-12. The easiest way, if you have a graphing calculator, is to put y = x2-x-12 and y = 0 into the graph and then solve for the intercepts. A way to do it without a graphing calculator is by factoring. x2-x-12 factors into (x-4) and (x+3). Then set (x-4) and (x+3) each equal to zero and solve. (x-4)=0 becomes x=4. (x+3)=0 becomes -3. Therefore, the answers are -3 and 4.
3x2 when x = 2 is the answer 3 X 4 = 12 or is the answer (3 X 2)2 = 62 = 36
Solve this problem -x squared -40x- 80 =0
(x - 12)(x + 12)
(x - 5)(x + 12)
By factoring I get x-3 divided by x+3
The answer to x2 - 2x - 4y2 - 4y =(x - 2y)(x - 2y - 2)
whp do you do a 7 suared
2x squared minus 5x minus 3 factored is (2x+1)(x-3).
3x2 when x = 2 is the answer 3 X 4 = 12 or is the answer (3 X 2)2 = 62 = 36
Solve this problem -x squared -40x- 80 =0
If x squared -10 = 0 then x = the square root of 10
The question contains an expression, not an equation or inequality. There is nothing to solve in an expression.
It is x^2 -x -12 is (x+3)(x-4) when factored
Expression: x^2 -x -12 Completing the square: (x -0.5)^2 -12.25
x^(2) - 10x + 16 = 0 Factors of '16', which are, 1,2,4,8,16. Select two numbers from this list that add/subtract to '10' . They are '2' and '8'. Setting up brackets ( x 2)(x 8) Since '16' is positive(+), then both signs must be the same. Since '10x' is negative (-) , then both signs are negative. Hence (x - 2)(x - 8 ) = 0 When x - 2 = 0 x = 2 & when x - 8 = 0 x = 8 So the two answers are ,2, & ,8, .
The question contains an expression but not an equation. You cannot solve an expression.
You have to put your heart into it!
