Answer:

x = - 2, x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 10 x  = 24 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

x² - 10x - 24 = 0 ← in standard form

To factorise the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 10)

The factors are - 12 and + 2, since

- 12 × 2 = - 24 and - 12 + 2 = - 10, thus

(x - 12)(x + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

Mr. Niles has a box of accessories for clarinets he has a total of 42 objects.
icang [17]

Answer:

12 mouthpieces, 24 reeds, 6 neck straps

Step-by-step explanation:

42 objects - 12 mouthpieces

= 30 objects left consisting of reeds and neckstraps

4 times as many reeds as neckstraps

think of it as 5 groups, 4 are reeds and 1 of nexkstraps

so divide 30 by 5 to get 6 per part.

4 of those parts = 24

1 of the parts = 6

so reeds = 24

neckstraps is 6

mouthpieces = 12
