Consider the polynomial 9x2 – 16. what is the value of ac? what is the value of b? what two numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b? the factored form of 9x2 – 16 is

there is no x- term (b) in the polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

to factor 9x² - 16 use the method of difference of squares

• a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

9x² = (3x)² ⇒ a = 3x and 16 = 4² ⇒ b = 4

9x² - 16 = (3x - 4)(3x + 4) ← in factored form

Consider the polynomial 9x2 – 16.

What is the value of ac? =  -144

What is the value of b?=  0

What two numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b? =  -12 and 12

The factored form of 9x2 – 16 is =  (3x-4)(3x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I got the answers correct on edg. Use this for whatever you'd like.

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
