The first bubble is the answer
Answer:
Negative numbers are anything below 0. They always have a minus (-) sign before them.
Positive numbers are anything above 0 and can sometimes be written with a plus (+) before them but not normally
First, the factor pairs for 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6
Since the middle term is -3, the two factors must be 3 apart. The only pair that is 3 values apart is 3, 6.
Since the middle value is negative, the larger number is negative. This means that the 6 is negative.
z = -6
z = 3
Set each equal to 0;
z = -6
z + 6 = 0
z = 3
z - 3 =0
So your factors are (z+6) and (z-3), or answer B.

Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 2 and d = 3 - 2 = 1, thus
= 2 + (43 × 1) = 2 + 43 = 45
