-12x^6 - 60x^5-75x^4.......GCF = 3x^4
3x^4(-4x^2 - 20x - 25)
3x^4(-2x - 5)(2x + 5) <==
A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.
B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20
Add equations
x=5
Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15
Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers
G(x) = 3x + 4
g(-4) = 3(-4) + 4
g(-4) = -12 + 4
g(-4) = -8
Answer: (5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3y =5 -----------(1)
2x + y = 10 ----------(2)
By elimination method, multiply eqn(1) by 2
2x - 6y = 10 ------------(3)
eqn(3) - eqn(2)
-7y = 0
Divide bothside by -7
y= 0
Now, we substitute the value of y in eqn(1)
x - 3(0) = 5
x - 0 = 5
x=5
Therefore,x=5 and y=0
132=3x+x
132=4x
x=33
