<u>Let us assume that:</u>

We can also write it as:

Squaring both sides, we get:


By splitting the middle term:



<u>Therefore:</u>


<u>But x cannot be negative. </u>

Therefore, the value of the expression is 3.

Given:

We can also write it as:






This pattern will continue.

<span>x(5x-8)-2(5x-8) =(5x-8)(x-2)
Answer is </span><span>C. (5x-8)(x-2)</span>
Answer:
min = (4, -136) ; max = (-2,80)
Step-by-step explanation:
The option is B
Add 7 to both sides
3x + 12 = 7x
Subtract 3x
12 = 4x
Divide by 4
x = 3
Graph the line using the slope and y-intercept, or two points.
Slope= -5
y- intercept= (0,2)
The answer has two points (0,2) and (1,-3) place them and then make a line going left through them.
