<u>ANSWER:  </u>

The temperature in Small ville, six hours ago was 13 degrees.

<u> SOLUTION: </u>

Given, current temperature in Smallville is 20 degrees.  

And this is 6 degrees less than twice the temperature that it was six hours ago.

We need to find what was the temperature six hours ago.

Let the temperature six hours ago be x.

Then, 2x - 6 = 20 [ according to the given information

2x = 20 + 6

2x = 26

x = \frac{26}{2}

x = 13 degrees.

Temperature six hours ago was 13 degrees

Hence, the temperature in smallville , six hours ago was 13 degrees.

Factor the following:
x^2 - 5 x - 24
Hint: | Factor x^2 - 5 x - 24 by finding two numbers whose product is -24 and whose sum is -5.
The factors of -24 that sum to -5 are 3 and -8. So, x^2 - 5 x - 24 = (x + 3) (x - 8):
Answer:  (x + 3) (x - 8)

Factor the following:
49 x^2 - 64
Hint: | Express 49 x^2 - 64 as a difference of squares.
49 x^2 - 64 = (7 x)^2 - 8^2:
(7 x)^2 - 8^2
Hint: | Factor the difference of two squares.
Factor the difference of two squares. (7 x)^2 - 8^2 = (7 x - 8) (7 x + 8):
Answer:  (7 x - 8) (7 x + 8)

Factor the following:
x^2 - x - 110
Hint: | Factor x^2 - x - 110 by finding two numbers whose product is -110 and whose sum is -1.
The factors of -110 that sum to -1 are 10 and -11. So, x^2 - x - 110 = (x + 10) (x - 11):
Answer: (x + 10) (x - 11)___________________________________________________________

Factor the following:
49 x^2 - 64
Hint: | Express 49 x^2 - 64 as a difference of squares.
49 x^2 - 64 = (7 x)^2 - 8^2:
(7 x)^2 - 8^2
Hint: | Factor the difference of two squares.
Factor the difference of two squares. (7 x)^2 - 8^2 = (7 x - 8) (7 x + 8):
Answer:  (7 x - 8) (7 x + 8)

Factor the following:
25 x^2 + 40 x - 10
Hint: | Factor out the greatest common divisor of the coefficients of 25 x^2 + 40 x - 10.
Factor 5 out of 25 x^2 + 40 x - 10:
Answer: 5 (5 x^2 + 8 x - 2)

Factor the following:
9 x^2 + 3 x^2 - 6 x
Hint: | Add like terms in 9 x^2 + 3 x^2 - 6 x.
3 x^2 + 9 x^2 = 12 x^2:
12 x^2 - 6 x
Hint: | Factor common terms out of 12 x^2 - 6 x.
Factor 6 x out of 12 x^2 - 6 x:
Answer: 6 x (2 x - 1)

20000 is 1/10 of what number
LekaFEV [45]
I will write your question as an equation:

20 000 =1/10*x

and we need to find the x. For this, we multiply both sides by 10:

200 000 =x

so the answer is 200 000
