Factor completely: 25x2 + 36y2 NOTE: The equations in Problems 55 – 69 are quadratic equations, which means they can be written in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a ≠ 0. Solve these equations using one of the following three methods: by using the square root property, by factoring, or by using the quadratic formula (when all else fails use this latter method - it should always work on any of these problems). The quadratic formula will be provided on your test. To solve using the square root property, refer to lesson 10.1. To solve by factoring or by using the quadratic formula, simplify each side of the equation if possible, then move all terms to one side of the equation so that one side of the equation equals zero, and then factor the other side of the equation or use the quadratic formula. Please refer to lesson 10.1 and the handout Exercise Set 10.1 posted at http://www.austincc.edu/jbickham/handouts for more information. If you have trouble, please ask for help. 55.

If it has a common factor, factor out the GCF. Example of common factor: In 18x2 + 12y2, factor out the GCF, which is 6, to get 6(3x2 + 2y2).] 35. a2 – 2ab + b2 = (a – b)2 [NOTE: Know this formula, and use it for factoring a perfect square trinomial with a negative middle term.] 36. a2 + 2ab + b2 = (a + b)2 [NOTE: Know this formula, and use it for factoring a perfect square trinomial with a positive middle term.] 37. 3ab2(3b – 2a) 38. 2a(5a2 + 3ab – 1) MATD 0370 ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA REVIEW FOR TEST 3 (New Material From: 6.1-6.3, 7.1-7.3, and 10.1) ANSWERS: 39. 7x3y2(3z4 – 4x2y) 40.

The number is 5 or –3. (NOTE: You must give both parts of the answer.) To set up this problem, let x = the number. Then the equation is 2x = x2 – 15. 65. The integers are 14 and 15, or the integers are –15 and –14. (NOTE: You must give both parts of the answer.) To set up this problem, let x = the first integer. Then x + 1 = the next consecutive integer. The equation is x(x + 1) = 210. 66. The integers are 5 and 7. (NOTE: –1.5 and 0.5 are not integers.) To set up this problem, let x = the first integer. Then x + 2 = the next consecutive odd integer. The equation is x2 + (x + 2)2 = 11(x + 2) – 3. 67. The height of the triangle is 2 cm and the base is 12 cm. To set up this problem, let x = the base. Then x – 10 = the height. The formula for area of a triangle is A = 1 2 bh so the equation is 1 2 x(x – 10) = 12. Hint: Multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to clear the fraction, which makes the equation x(x – 10) = 24. 68. The width of the rectangle is 5 inches and the length is 7 inches. To set up this problem, let x = the width. Then 2x – 3 = the length. The formula for area of a rectangle is A = lw so the equation is (2x – 3)x = 35, or x(2x – 3) = 35. 69. The lengths of the sides of the triangle are 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm. (NOTE: The hypotenuse of a right triangle is always the longest side.) To set up this problem, let x = the length of the short leg. Then x + 7 = the length of the long leg, and x + 7 + 1 = x + 8 = the length of the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean Theorem a2 + b2 = c2 to write the equation x2 + (x + 7)2 = (x + 8)2. Please also remember how to square a binomial such as (x + 7)2 = (x + 7)(x + 7). Multiply all terms together and combine like terms to get x2 + 14x + 49. 70. The length of the other leg is 10.5 ft and the length of the hypotenuse is 17.5 ft. To set up this problem, let x = the length of the other leg. Then x + 7 = the length of the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to write the equation x2 + 142 = (x + 7)2. 71. The lengths of the pieces of rope are 28.5 m and 85.5 m. To set up this problem, let x = the length of the short piece. Then 3x = the length of the long piece. The sum of the two pieces is the total length of rope, which means that the equation is x + 3x = 114.
