Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x²-8x-20
=x²-10x+2x-20
=x(x-10)+2(x-10)
=(x-10)(x+2)
second factor is x+2
Answer:
so where are the 3 consecutive numbers?
Answer:
y = - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a horizontal line is
y = c
where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.
The line passes through (5, - 7) with y- coordinate - 7, thus
y = - 7 ← equation of horizontal line
(x/100-1)(x/100+1)=kx^2-1
(x/100-1)(x/100+1)=(x/100)^2 - 1^2 because it's a difference of squares ( (a-b)(a+b) = a^2-ab+ab-b^2 = a^2 - b^2):
(x/100)^2 - 1^2=kx^2 - 1
(x/100)^2 - 1=kx^2 - 1
(x/100)^2=kx^2
(x^2)/(100^2)=kx^2
1/(100^2)=k
1/10000=k
k=0.0001
