Answer:
B = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 + 4xy − 48y^2
Factor out 2
2(x^2 + 2xy − 24y^2)
What 2 numbers multiply to -24 and add to 2
-4 *6 = -24
-4+6 = 2
2 ( x+6y)( x-4y)
Answer:
look it up
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean means average.
To find the average, add the data then divide it by the amount of individual data you have.
(6.5 + 5 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 3.5 + 5)/2 = mean
27/2 = mean
13.5 = mean
13.5 miles is the mean distance that Jim jogged.
Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.
x + y + z = 79
x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first
Therefor,
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x
x + 5x + x + 16 = 79
Add all like numbers:
7x + 16 = 79
To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.
7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63
To get x, divide both sides by 7
7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9
To check. Substitute x by 9.
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
