Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>"The product"</u> means multiplication so we have to multiply these two values together.
When we multiply two negative numbers together <u>it results in a positive</u>.
Keeping this in mind, solve the equation.
-3 1/4*-1 1/2
First multiply the fractions
1*1=1
4*2=8
1/8
Now the numbers.
-3*-1=3
The answer is 3 1/8.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
$33
Step-by-step explanation:
c = price of cheese; s = price of sausage
3c + 3s = $36
s = c - 2
3c + 3(c - 2) = 36
2c - 2 = 12
c = $ 7
s = 7 - 2 = $ 5
Therefore, price of 4 lb of cheese and 1 lb of sausage is 4c + 1s = $28 + $5 = $33
Answer:
6(x - 1)(3x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
18x² - 12x - 6 ← factor out 6 from each term
= 6(3x² - 2x - 1) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 3 × - 1 = - 3 and sum = - 2
The factors are - 3 and + 1
Use these factors to split the x- term
3x² - 3x + x - 1 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 3x(x - 1) + 1(x - 1) ← factor out (x - 1)
= (x - 1)(3x + 1)
Hence
18x² - 12x - 6 = 6(x - 1)(3x + 1) ← in factored form
One box is 20$ and 20 boxes is 400$
