Factor completly 12a2 - 36ab + 27b2

Hell . what are the solutions to `10x^2 - 38x - 8 = 0`? is this when i find the factors and use the numbers within the factors to determine the zeros? i hope that made sense lol

How is the equation of this circle written in standard form? x2 + y2 - 6x + 14y = 142 a) (x - 3)2 + (y + 7)2 = 200 b) (x+ 3)2 + (y - 7)2 = 200 (x - 6)2 + (y + 14)2 = 142 d) (x+6)2 + (y- 14)2 = 142

Without multiplying, tell which product is larger and why. 5 × 1/3 or 5 × 2/3 a)5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is less than 2/3 b) 5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3 c) 5 × 2/3 because 1/3 is less than 23 d) 5 × 23 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3
