The answer is:  " (x − 8) (x + 3) " .
__________________________________________________________
  " (x − 8) (x + 3) " are the factors of:  " x² − 5x − 24 " .
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________

Given:  "x² − 5x − 24 " ;  Factor this "trinomial" expression completely.

We notice the "-5x" and the "-24 .

What factors of "-24" add up to "-5" ?

-1 + 24 ? No.

-24 + 1 ? no. 

-12 + 2 = -10? No.

12 + (-2) = 12 - 2 = 10 ? No.

-3 + 8 = 5 ? No.

-8 + 3 = -5 ?  Yes! 

So:   " (x − 8) (x + 3) " are the factors of:  " x² − 5x <span>− 24 " .

Answer:

Rate of change  = 0.5

Initial value = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

(10 , 125)   ;   (30 , 135)

Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

         = \frac{135-125}{30-10}\\\\= \frac{10}{20}\\\\= \frac{1}{2}\\= 0.5

Rate of change  = 0.5

Initial value = 120
