I won’t give a actual answer to the equation, because I want you and anyone else to learn it. but I do want to help!
the sum is the answer to a addition problem. that means you should choose anything that falls under that.
The term is anything that is being separated by + or - so for this, choose anything like that.
The product is the final answer to a multiplication problem.
Factor- any number leading up to a answer in a problem. Example: 3 times 4 is 12. The 3 and the 4 are the factors.
Quotient- the final answer to a division problem.
Coefficient- the number separated from the rest of the problem or the number at the beginning of the problem that stands alone. Because this one is a bit harder to explain, I’ll go ahead and tell you it is 4.
Variable- the unknown number such as y or x.
I hope this helps, and good luck!! :)
Answer:
QR = 86
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Trust.</em>
They are similar. Set the proportions equal to each other
(x + 8)/8 = (x+14)/12
Cross multiply
(x + 8)/8 (8)(12) = (x + 14)/12 (12)(8)
12(x + 8) = 8(x + 14)
Distribute the 12 and 8 to the corresponding monomials inside the parenthesis
12(x + 8) = 12x + 96
8(x + 14) = 8x + 112
12x + 96 = 8x + 112
Isolate the x. Subtract 8x from both sides and 96 from both sides
12x (-8x) + 96 (-96) = 8x (-8x) + 112 (-96)
12x - 8x = 112 - 96
4x = 16
Isolate the equal sign. Divide 4 from both sides
4x/4 = 16/4
x = 16/4
x = 4

4 is your answer for x

Start by writing your own expression.
x is the smaller number and x + 1 is the next number
x(x + 1) = 420
x^2 + x - 420 =0 ⇒ constant = -420
