One is a linear and the other is a quadratic polynomial.
And (x+2) is indeed a factor.
You can rewrite it as (x+2)(3x-7)
A = 6, 2
B = 3, 4
C = -10, 3
D = -4, 5
E = -5, -3
F = -4, -2
G = 3, -8
35 or 37 represent 50% of 74
A and b proves that they are parallel
Writing this problem in symbols instead of in words greatly simplifies it:
(2 2/3) * (1 1/5) * (1 1/2)
Write each quantity (inside each set of parentheses) as an improper fraction:
(8/3) * (6/5) * (3/2)
Now multiply the numerators thru: 8*6*3 / 3*5*2
Notice that we can reduce this by dividing the 8 by the 2 and dividing the 6 by the 3: 4*3*3 36
---------- = -----------
5 5
