Answer:
Zoe's number is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be 'n'
a) Multiply 'n' by 3 ⇒ n*3 = 3n
Add 4 to '3n' ⇒ 3n + 4
Add 5 to 'n' ⇒ n +5
Multiply (n+ 5) by 2 ⇒ (n +5)*2 = 2n + 5*2 = 2n + 10
3n + 4 = 2n + 10
b) 3n + 4 = 2n + 10
Subtract 4 form both sides
3n = 2n + 10 - 4
3n = 2n + 6
Subtract 2n from both sides
3n - 2n = 6

Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the other numbers are less than -1/3
2p² - p - 10 = 0
2 = a
- 1 = b
- 10 = c
To factor, find two numbers that multiply to equal a·c and also that have a sum of b
2p² + 4p - 5p - 10 = 0
2p (p + 2) - 5 (p + 2) = 0
<h3>Answer: ( 2p - 5 ) ( p + 2 ) = 0</h3>
