Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let Kat reads k pages of the book.
Miguel reads 5 times as many pages of the book as Kat. So,
m = 5k ...(1)
Together they read 54 pages. i.e.
m+k = 54 ...(2)
From equation (1),

Hence, the equation that can be used to find how many pages Kat read is equal to
.
(2x - 3y) (4x - y) = 8x² - 2xy - 12xy + 3y²
(2x - 3y) (4x - y) = 8x² -14xy + 3y²
---------------------------------
Answer:8x² -14xy + 3y²
---------------------------------
Find the possible rational roots and use synthetic division to find the first zero.
I chose x=1 (which represents the factor "x-1")
1║2 -7 -13 63 -45
║ 2 -5 -18 45
2 -5 -18 45 0
(x-1) is a factor, (2x³ - 5x² - 18x + 45) is the other factor.
Use synthetic division on the decomposed polynomial to find the next zero.
I chose x = 3 (which represents the factor "x-3")
3║2 -5 -18 45
║ 6 3 -45
2 1 -15 0
Using synthetic division, we discovered that (x-1), (x-3), & (2x² + x -15) are factors. Take the new decomposed polynomial (2x² + x -15) and find the last two factors using any method.
Final Answer: (x-1)(x-3)(x+3)(2x-5)
Answer: The Answer is <u>A: 7.685</u> but then round it up to <u>8</u> on edge
The first step to dividing fractions is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the fractions if needed.
