<h2>Answer</h2>

x = 8 or x = 3

<h2>Explanation </h2>

1. Multiply A and C

24 * 1 = 24

2. Find two numbers that multiply to 24 but add up to -11

-8 * -3 = 24

-8 + -3 = -11

(x - 8)(x - 3)

3. Switch the signs to find the value of x

x = 8 or x = 3

Use the distributive property to simplify the expression. 8(3 + 4) = 24 +

Marina CMI [18]

Using the distributive property is done by multiplying the factor (outside the parentheses) to each term within it. In this case, 8(3 + 4), we multiply the 8 by 3, and then add it to the product of 8 x 4:
8(3 + 4) = 8 x 3 + 8 x 4 = 24 + 32
If we need to simplify further, this adds up to 56.

Jamal works as an electrician’s apprentice. He rewired 4 electrical outlets in 1 1/2 hours. If he works at the same pace for 7.5

RSB [31]

This can be solve by first solving the proportionality constant

Number electic outlets rewired is directly proportional to time spent

4 = (1 ½)a

Let be the proportionality constant

A = 8/3

O = (8/3)(7.5)

o = 20 outlets will jamal rewired if he works for 7.5 hrs
