Answer:
(x+4)(x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find two numbers that multiply to be -20 but add up to be -1.
On average, 2 will fall apart. We can tell this by making a proportion.
1/20 = x/40 ---> cross multiply
1*40 = 20*x ---> multiply
40 = 20x ----> divide by 20
2 = x
The answers should be the last 2
Answer:
The best estimate is greater than 1/2 but less than 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply 1/4 by 3/3 (which is also 1), you can change the denominator without changing the value. So 1/4 is equal to 3/12.
Since keith has 11/12 hours to play, and he has already played 3/12 hours, subtract 3/12 from 11/12 to get 8/12 hours. This is how much time he has left to play.
If you simplify 8/12 hours, you get 2/3 hours.
So the best estimate would be: greater than 1/2 but less than 3/4.
