Its factors would be
(x+2)*(x-1)*(x+0)
x^2 +x -2
x^3 + 0 + x^2 + 0 -2x +0
Equation: x^3 + x^2 -2x
f(2) = 8 + 4 -4
2x^3 + 2x^2 -4x +0
f(2) = 16 + 8 -8
3x^3 + 3x^2 -6x +0
f(2) = 24 +12 -12
4x^3 + 4x^2 -8x +0
f(2) = 32 +16 -16
So, the equation is:
4x^3 + 4x^2 -8x = 0
4/6 can reduce to 2/3. (divide each by 2)
14/21 can reduce to 2/3 by dividing the nume/denominator by 7.
in this case, they are proportional.
Answer:c
Explanation: well 79.95-20%=63.96
( 2a + 3 ) - ( 4a - 8 ) = 7
2a + 3 - 4a + 8 = 7
-2a + 11 = 7
-2a = -4
a = -4 / -2
a = 2
