Simplifying
9x + -3(x + 8) = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
9x + -3(8 + x) = 6x + -24
9x + (8 * -3 + x * -3) = 6x + -24
9x + (-24 + -3x) = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
-24 + 9x + -3x = 6x + -24
Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
-24 + 6x = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
-24 + 6x = -24 + 6x
Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
6x = 0 + 6x
6x = 6x
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
6x + -6x = 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
Every day, Michael consumes 4 more ounces than the pretzels. Multiply 5 by 4 to recieve the answer:
4 x 5 = 20
So the answer is A.
You can solve this in two ways.
1. Graphical. Plot the graph for x between -5 and 1 (see attachement).
The vertex of the graph is the peak of the curve, which has the coordinates x=-2, y=-9.
2. Analytical. Calculate the derivative of the function f(x)

Solve the equation:

will give the solution x=-2.
Replace x=-2 in the f(x) function and you'll get the value of y:

You get the same answer: x=-2, y=-9
So the answer is
<span>B. (-2, -9)</span>
Answer:
The longer length is either 99, 33 or 11 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required
The length of the longer side
Area of a rectangle is:

List out all possible products that give 99 [Assume the dimension are whole numbers]



List out the longer factors

<em>Hence, the longer length is either 99, 33 or 11 inches</em>
