<h3>Factor –3y – 18 is: -3(y + 6)</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that we have to factor -3y - 18
Use the distributive property,
a(b + c) = ab + bc
From given,
-3y - 18
Factor out the greatest common factor of 3 and 18
The factors of 3 are: 1, 3
The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Then the greatest common factor is 3
Factot out 3 from given expression
-3y - 18 = 3( - y - 6)
Or else we can rewrite as,
-3y - 18 = -3(y + 6)
Thus the given expression is factored
80$ won't be enough to pay
He would like need 6 more cents
he needs 80.06$
because
At 1/8 of a gallon you can mow 2 1/4 so for 1 gallon just multiply 2 1/4 by 8
16+2 is 18
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.
