The equation would be 1.65 + y - 0.15 + 0.45 = ? If you combine like terms you get B) 1.95 y as your answer. I hope this helps!
If the polynomial is of the form x^2+bx+c (ie., no factor in front of the x^2!!) then you can look for numbers that add up to b and multiply to c.
So in this case: what two numbers, when added, give -2 and when multiplied, give 1? A little trial and error gives you -1 and -1.
So the factorization is (x-1)(x-1). This is zero for x=1. There is only one zero.
<span>First, find what are the numbers that can be divided to 10 and 85. The numbers 10 and 85 can be divided by 5. 10 divided by 5 is equals to 2 and 85 divided by 5 is equals to 17. Ratio is just like a fraction, you need to reduce its terms if you need to. Let’s say 10:85 is a fraction and since it is obvious that it can be divided by 5, you just need to reduce its term. 10/85 can be reduced into 2/17 which is just the same with ratios 10:85 is equals to 2:17.<span>
