Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x^2 -3x -9

2 * -9 = -18. We need 2 numbers whose product is -18 and whose sum is -3. They are -6 and + 3. So:

= 2x^2 - 6x + 3x - 9

= 2x(x - 3) + 3(x - 3)

= (2x + 3)(x - 3)

2) 3x^2 + 5x +2

Now 3 * 2 = 6 We need to numbers whose product is + 6 and whose sum is +5. Theres are + 3 and + 2>

= 3x^2 + 3x + 2x + 2

= 3x(x + 1) + 2(x + 1)

= (3x + 2)(x + 1)

Mary scored 28 points, which is twice as many points as Lashawna scored. Let L represent the points Lashawna scored.

Basile [38]

Answer: Lashawna scored 14 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Mary's score

L = Lashawna score

M = 28 points

And M is twice as much as L score

M= 2L

L= M/2

L= 28/2

M = 14.

Lashawna score was 14 points

Solve for b B=??????

kozerog [31]

Answer:

$\frac{b-7}{b+1}=\frac{b-10}{b+4}$

$\left(b-7\right)\left(b+4\right)=\left(b+1\right)\left(b-10\right)$

$\left(b-7\right)\left(b+4\right)=b^2-3b-28$

$\left(b+1\right)\left(b-10\right)=b^2-9b-10$

$b^2-3b-28=b^2-9b-10$

$b^2-3b-28+28=b^2-9b-10+28$

$b^2-3b=b^2-9b+18$

$b^2-3b-\left(b^2-9b\right)=b^2-9b+18-\left(b^2-9b\right)$

$6b=18$

$\frac{6b}{6}=\frac{18}{6}$

$b=3$
