The answer is (x - 10)(x - 9).

Alright, so here is my thought process as I factored this out. 

The middle number, or second term, is the sum of the numbers within the parentheses after you factor. In this case, we had to get to -19.

Now, to figure out which two number are gonna add up to that, you need to figure out the factors of the last number in the equation, which is the constant. In this case, multiple choice tells us that 10 and 9 have got to be the factors of 90 we're looking for. 

Now, back to the first step. We have the numbers 10, 9, and -19. The only way to make 10 and 9 add up to -19 is by making 10 and 9 both negative. So -9 and - 10. 

Finally, you add the x's and the parentheses to make the lovely factored version of the equation: (x - 10)(x - 9)! :)

If (x+3) varies directly as y and x=3 when y=12, what is the value of x when y=8?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k(x + 3)

When x = 3 y = 12 so

12 = k(3 + 3)

6k = 12

k = 2.

So the relation is y = 2(x + 3)

When y is 8:

8 = 2(x + 3)

2x = 8 - 2*3 = 2

x = 1.

You put $800 in an account that earns 4% simple interest. Find the total amount in your account after each year for 3 years. (Pl
alexandr402 [8]
To get 4% of 800 you times 800 by 4 and divide it by 100. Once you have that amount you add it to 800 to find the amount you will have in your bank the first year. To get the next year's amount you then get 4% of 832(because after the first year you have more than $800) and then add the 4% to 832, that is the answer for the second year. To find the third year's amount you get 4% of the new amount (last year's total) and add it to last year's total, that is your total for the third year. So the first year will be: (800x4÷100)+800 =32+800 =832 The second year will be: 832+(832x4÷100) =832+33.28 =865.28 The third year will be: (865.28×4÷100)+865.28 =34.61(rounded off)+865.28 =899.89
