Okay so the problem starts you off with the fraction (1/4). Sharing equally among 3 people would mean that you'd want to divide it by three so your equation would initially look like (1/4) / 3. Having two dividing signs is confusing so what you do is change the dividing into multiplying by the reciprocal of 3 = 1/3... This would make your expression (1/4) * (1/3) and when you simplify this you should get 1/12 as the answer.

The answer is : 1.33333333 because 4 divided by 3 is 1.33333333 and 1.33333333x1 is 1.33333333 so the answer is 1.33333333

X=-4             you have to substitue first so you put the equation where the X is and then you would distribute and then add the numbers that have the common exponent

Answer:

AP is 11.25 so the answer is F

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar triangles (due to the ~ symbol)

You can write this:

AC/XZ = AP/XQ

since XZ=12

XQ=5

AC=27

you can write:

27/12=AP/5

then cross multiply:

27x5=135

135/12=11.25

AP is 11.25

How do I find the factor of the trinomial of y^2+7y-30
wel
Find two numbers that multiply to -30 (last term) and add to 7 (middle coefficient)

The two numbers are 10 and -3
10 times -3 = -30
10 plus -3 = 7

Using those two values gets us the two factors (y+10) and (y-3)

Therefore, y^2+7y-30 factors to (y+10)(y-3)

The equation y^2+7y-30 = (y+10)(y-3) is true for all values of y.
