You can break the equation into two groups:

6a² + 5a - 6

(9a - 6) + (6a² - 4a)

Simplify:

(9a - 6)

3(9a - 6)

(3a - 2)

--------------------------

(6a² - 4a)

2a(6a² - 4a)

(3a - 2)

--------------------------

(3a - 2)(2a+3)

You can't simplify any further, so that will be your answer.

Answer:

(2a + 3)(3a - 2)

Abdullah earns $10 an hour delivering newspapers on his bicycle . He started with $20 in his bank account. what is the rate and

elixir [45]

Explanation:

The equation for this problem can be modeled in y = mx + b form.

m represents the rate of change and b represents the initial value or constant.

y = 10x + 20

x represents the number of hours he spent delivering newspapers

y is his total money after whatever number of hours he worked

The rate is 10, because it determines how much money he earns for each hour.

The y-intercept is 20, representing the starting amount of money in his bank account.

Part 2: The Zombie Assassin

Tatiana [17]

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

y = a(b)ˣ

y: final population of zombies
a: initial population of zombies
b: rate of decrease
x: number of hours

Given: a = 500,000 b = 50% (0.5)

y = 500,000(0.5)ˣ

Since we want to know the number assassinated (A), subtract the total from the final population of zombies

A = 500,000 - y

a) Equation: 500,000 - 500,000(0.5)ˣ

$\begin{array}{c|c|c||l|c}\underline{\quad a\quad}&\underline{\quad b\quad}&\underline{\quad x\quad}&\underline{\quad 500,000(0.5)^x=y \qquad}&\underline{\quad 500,000-y=A\quad}\\500,000&0.5&5&500,000(0.5)^5=15,625&\bold{484,375}\\500,000&0.5&10&500,000(0.5)^{10}=488&\bold{499,512}\\500,000&0.5&15&500,000(0.5)^{15}=15&\bold{499,985}\\500,000&0.5&20&500,000(0.5)^{20}=0&\bold{500,000}\\\end{array}$
