To write the given equation 4x19=x2 in standard form, we need to rearrange it so that all terms are on one side of the equation and set equal to zero.

Starting from the equation:

4x19=x2

We can subtract x2 from both sides:

4x19x2=0

Now, rearranging the equation gives us:

x24x19=0

To write it in the standard form of ax2+bx+c=0, we can multiply the entire equation by 1 to make the leading coefficient positive:

x2+4x+19=0

So, the quadratic equation in standard form is:

x2+4x+19=0

What is the greatest common factor of 24 and 36?

To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 24 and 36, we can use the method of prime factorization.

  1. Prime factorization of 24:

    • 24=2×12
    • 12=2×6
    • 6=2×3
    • Thus, the prime factorization of 24 is: 24=23×31
  2. Prime factorization of 36:

    • 36=2×18
    • 18=2×9
    • 9=3×3
    • Thus, the prime factorization of 36 is: 36=22×32
  3. Finding the GCF:

    • Now, identify the lowest power of each common prime factor:
      • For 2, the lowest power is 22.
      • For 3, the lowest power is 31.
  4. Calculating the GCF: GCF=22×31=4×3=12

Thus, the greatest common factor of 24 and 36 is 12.

Factor the expression completely.
15, plus, 20, x
15+20x

To factor the expression 15+20x completely, we first look for the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms.

  1. Identify the GCF of 15 and 20x:

    • The GCF of 15 and 20 is 5.
  2. Factor out the GCF:

    • We can factor 5 out of both terms: 15+20x=5(3)+5(4x)
    • This simplifies to: 5(3+4x)

Thus, the completely factored form of the expression 15+20x is

5(3+4x)

Factor the expression completely.

To factor the expression 5xx2 completely, follow these steps:

  1. Rearrange the expression: Rewrite it in standard form: x2+5x (It is sometimes easier to factor if the x2 term is first.)

  2. Factor out the common factor: We see that both terms 5x and x2 have a common factor of x: x2+5x=x(x5)

Now we have factored out x from the expression, and what remains is (x5).

Thus, the completely factored form of the expression 5xx2 is: x(x5)

To solve the equation x2=2x by factoring, we first rearrange the equation to set it to zero:

x2+2x=0

Next, we can factor out the common term x:

x(x+2)=0

Now, we can apply the zero product property, which states that if the product of two factors is zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero. Setting each factor to zero gives us:

  1. x=0
  2. x+2=0x=2

Thus, the solutions to the equation are:

0 and 2

Solve the equation for all values of xx.

To solve the equation

x29=0,

we can factor it. The expression x29 is a difference of squares, which can be factored as follows:

x29=(x3)(x+3).

Now we set the factored equation to zero:

(x3)(x+3)=0.

Using the zero product property, we can set each factor to zero:

  1. x3=0x=3
  2. x+3=0x=3

Thus, the solutions to the equation x29=0 are:

3 and 3.
