Answer 1

do you know how to factor??

Answer 2

yah

Answer 3

how did you do it?

Answer 4

show me the work and ill tell you which part you did wrong

Answer 5

I forgot

Answer 6

lol

Answer 7

ok ill teach

Answer 8

k

Answer 9

first you have the equation x^2-17x+72
you can see that you have (-17 + 72)
because you have 72 you must divide the number and when you get the two numbers it must add up to -17.
so 72 = 8 * 9 or -8 * -9
then because when you add up -8 + -9 = -17
so the factorized answer would be (x-8)(x-9)

Answer 10

it would be a. right

Answer 11

no it would be c
