The answer would be 2:5 because you divide both sides by the least common multiple which is 3. 6/3=2 and 15/3=5.

Distribute.

(a + 8)(a -3)

FOIL:

First, Outside, Inside, and Last

a * a = a^2

a * 3 = 3a

8 * a = 8a

8 * -3 = - 24

a^2 + 11a - 24

Distributed Expression: a^2 + 11a - 24

A company is selling books. It has to pay $500 to start printing the books, and once they have done that, the books sell at $14.99 each. How many books must they sell to make a profit?

First we would model an equation. X will be the amount of books sold, and Y will be profits (in dollars obv). They had to pay $500 before they could start selling, so we must account for that too.

This equation would be $y=14.99x-500$ because for every book sold, X increases by 1, increasing Y by 14.99

The answer would be 34 books sold in order to turn a profit. (500/14.99=
