Answer:
(x - 3)(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 3) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
The factors are - 3 and - 1, since
- 3 × - 1 = + 3 and - 3 - 1 = - 4, hence
x² - 4x + 3 = (x - 3)(x - 1) ← in factored form
17.5
Divide 7 by 8 to get .875 and multiply that by 20 to get your answer.
Answer:
i got 2808 in3 which wasn't on the list and i was extremely confused, i redid the problem multiple times and got the same answer, i used a calculator AND searched of the web, it still gave me the same answer, if those are the only options something might be wrong, the answer should be 2808 in3.
The differnce of 2 perfect cubes
remember
a³-b³=(a-b)(a²+ab+b²)

Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Calculate the average speed of train B</u>
- 60mph = 3/4 (s) ⇒ s = 60 (4/3) mph = 80 mph
<u>2. Build a table</u>
When the two trains meet:
Train Average speed Distance time (distance/average speed)
mph
A 60 x x/60
B 80 240 - x (240 - x) / 80
<u>3. Write the equation</u>
The time, when the two trains meet, is the same for both trains:

<u>4. Calculate the time:</u>
- x/60 = 102.86 / 60 = 1.7 hours
The two trains will meet after 1.7 hours
