Answer:

The solution to the equation (2x + 6)(3x – 6) = 0 is -3 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : (2x + 6)(3x – 6) = 0

We have to find the solution for the given equation using zero-product property.

Zero product property states that for any two number a and b the following holds,

$a\cdot b =0 \Rightarrow a=0 \ or \ b=0$

thus, Consider the given (2x + 6)(3x – 6) = 0

Apply zero product property, we have.

(2x + 6)= 0 or (3x – 6) = 0

Simplify, for x,

x = -3 or x = 2

Thus, The solution to the equation (2x + 6)(3x – 6) = 0 is -3 and 2

If we use the zero product property it basically means this: We have (2x + 6) (3x -6) = 0 Meaning that 2x + 6 = 0 AND 3x - 6 = 0 So now for each case solve for x :)

your answer is -3

At the end of January of last year, stock A was selling at A dollars a share, and stock B was selling a B dollars a share, where

Maslowich

Answer: a) yNA/100

b) NA(y-x)/100

c) (NA)/B

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The total amount of dollars owned by the shares' owner = N number of shares × A dollars per share = NA dollars

This total is then transferred to buy B shares which then appreciates by y%.

The amount of increase in portfolio from January to June = y% of total dollars invested = y% of NA dollars = yNA/100

b) If the shares were left with A, the increase in portfolio from January to June would be x% and = x% of the total Dollar amount = x% of NA dollars = xNA/100

How much more money made in that time would be the difference in interest, between taking the dollars to invest in share B or keeping the dollars on investment A

That is, (yNA/100) - (xNA/100) = NA(y-x)/100

c) Total dollars available after sale of the A stock = NA

Number of B stock this dollar can buy = Total dollars available/amount of B stock per share

That is, (NA)/B

Write the equation of the ellipse using the given information:

horsena [70]

We know, equation of ellipse is given by :

$\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$

Here,

(h,k) is centre of the ellipse = (0,0).

a = major axis = 8.

b = minor axis = 4.

Putting all given value in above equation, we get :

$\dfrac{(x-0)^2}{8^2}+\dfrac{(y-0)^2}{4^2}=1\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{8^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{4^2}=1\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{64}+\dfrac{y^2}{16}=1$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Solve for X:

saveliy_v [14]

$- \frac{6}{5} x - 4 = - 46 \\ - \frac{6}{5} x = - 42 \\ - 6x = - 210 \\ x = 35$
Translate the words into math and solve for x. Any questions let me know.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 1 in place of x and the result is -4.

Again substitute 3 in place of x and the result is 6.
