Factor each trinomial. then match the polynomial (term) on the left with its factored form (definition) on the right. 1. x2 − 7x − 12 2. x2 − x − 12 3. x2 − 4x − 12 4. x2 + 4x − 12 a. (x - 6)(x + 2) b. (x - 2)(x + 6) c. (x - 4)(x + 3) d. prime

1. ---> d. Prime

2.---> c. (x-4)(x+3)

3.---> a. (x-6)(x+2)

4. ---> b. (x-2)(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Trinomials are three term algebraic expressions typically featuring variables to exponent powers. To break these trinomials down we factor them using the diamond method or GCF. The diamond method states that for a trinomial multiply a*c then find two numbers which multiply to this number and add to b. When you find those numbers, write them as .

1.

a=1, c=-12

ac=-12 and add to b=-7

Not possible. PRIME. This is not possible because the factors of -12 would have two different signs and would not be able to add to -7.

2.

a=1, c=-12

ac=-12 and add to b=-1

Factors: C  

3.

a=1, c=-12

ac=-12 and add to b=-4

Factors: A  

4.

a=1, c=-12

ac=-12 and add to b=4

Factors: B  

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
