If the leading coefficient is negative, always factor out the negative.
-x^2+5x-6

-1(x-2)(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

first we factor the negative:

-1 (x^2 - 5x +6 )

the next step, (if possible) is to guess 2 numbers that multiplied are 6

and added are -5

in this case is easy to see that those numbers are -2 and -3

The solution then is:

-1(x-2)(x-3)

If guessing the 2 numbers doesn't work, you need to complete the square

i believe the correct answer is option 4.principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

which statement correctly defines principalities in northern asia in the 1200s? principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

hope i could ! : )

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
