Answer:
(x + 4)(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are actually quite a lot of pairs of binomials the disproves Eric's conclusion, but they all model after the same special product: a^2 - b^2.
The special product a^2 - b^2 can be factored into (a + b)(a - b) and for all real a and b, it will come out as a binomial.
Here is an example:
(x + 4)(x - 4)
We can use the distributive property to get:
x^2 - 4x + 4x - 16
which is the same as
x^2 - 16
This would disprove Eric's conclusion.
4x +28 and 68 are vertical angles and are equal.
Set them to equal each other to solve for x:
4x +28 = 68
Subtract 28 from each side:
4x = 40
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 40/4
x = 10

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 = 5x - 8
==> add 8 to both sides
in doing so we get 3x + 4 + 8 = 5x - 8 + 8
the -8 and the +8 cancels out and 4 + 8 = 12
we are left with 3x + 12 = 5x
==> subtract 3x from both sides
in doing so we get 3x - 3x + 12 = 5x - 3x
the 3x and -3x cancel out and 5x - 3x = 2x
we are left with 12 = 2x
==> divide both sides by 2
in doing so we get 12/2 which equals 6 and 2x/2x which leaves us with
6 = x
