Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
10x+8=3x-6
subtract 10x-3x
7x+8= -6
subtract -6-8
7x=-14
divide 7 into -14
x = -2
Hope this helps!
Answer:
3/16 pounds more.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 1 1/8 - 15/16
= 9/8 - 15/16
= 18/16 - 15/16
= 3/16.
Easy.

Answer:
x = -3 and x = -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
After writing down the polynomial, split it; put a line between 3x^2 and -18x. Look and 2x^3 + 3x^2 and -18x - 27 separately and factor them both:
p(x) = 2x^3 + 3x^2 <u>- 18x -27</u>
p(x) = x^2(2x+3) <u>-9(2x+3)</u>
Now notice how x^2 and -9 have the same factor (2x+3). That means x^2 and -9 can go together:
p(x) = (x^2 - 9)(2x+3)
Factor it once more because there's a difference of squares:
p(x) = (x+3)(x-3)(2x+3)
Now just plug in whatever makes the each bracket equal 0:
x = -3, x = 3, and x = -3/2
Those are your zeros.
Since only one person can finish in first place, one in second, etc., the total number of placers is 12x11x10, or 1320 different ways the 12 racers can finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd....
