When you find the quotient of two numbers it means you're dividing them. So, you can solve this by dividing -42 by 7.
Seven will go into forty-two 6 times, but whenever you divide a negative number by a positive number, the answer will also be negative. So, the quotient of -42 and 7 is -6.
Answer:
13.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the paper square = 18inches
Perimeter of a square = 4s
4s = 18 inches
s = 18/4 = 4.5 inches
Therefore, each side of the square = 4.5 inches.
When the square is cut into 2 rectangles,
The perimeter of one of the rectangles is 10 inches.
Perimeter of the second rectangle = 2L + 2W
Let the length of the rectangle (L) = one side of the square = 4.5 inches
Width of the Rectangle = Length of the square/2 = 4.5 inches/ 2 = 2.25
Perimeter of the second rectangle = 2(4.5) + 2(2.25)
= 9 + 4.5
= 13.5 inches
Add like terms on the same side:
-10 + 8x = -56
Add ten to both sides
-10 + 8x + 10 = -56 +10
Simplify:
8x = -46
Divide both side by 8
8x/8 = -46/8
Simplify
x = - 5.75
The answer is x = -5.75
(The answer can also be written as -23/4 or -5 3/4)
B^2-6b+8 turns into b^2-2b-4b+8 due to the sum product pattern. which then turns into b(b-2) - 4(b-2) and then its (b-4)(b-2)
