Both B and C will give you the correct factorization for this equation.

When you factor a quadratic, you are looking for factors of the last number (-42) that add up to the middle coefficient (1). Below are the factors of -42.

1*-42

-1*42

2*-21

-2*21

3*-14

-3*14

6*-7

-6*7

And since these two are the only ones that add up to 1, we use these in parenthesis, creating the following (x - 6)(x + 7) - which is answer C. You also can switch the order due to the laws of multiplication. If you switch them around you get (x + 7)(x - 6) - which is answer B as well.

What percent of 20 is 16?!!!<br><br>What's the answer and how do I work the problem out?!!
-Dominant- [34]

<span>16/20 is 80%.</span>

You find out by multiplying the denominator: 20 * 5 = 100

Then, you do the same to the numerator which is: 16 * 5 = x

So, x = 80%

Hope this helps! :D
