Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I assume that you mean

$x^2-5x-36$

The product is -36.

$x_1 \text{ and } x_2 \text{ are the two roots, we can write}\\\\(x-x_1)(x-x_2)=x^2-(x_1+x_2)x+x_1\cdot x_2$

So in this example, it means that the sum is 5 and the product is -36.

Thank you

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 3x+6=21 and arrives at the correct solution?

My name is Ann [436]

The correct solution is C

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation
3x + 6 - 6 = 21 - 6
3x = 15

Then divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{15}{3}$

x = 5

Kaitlin buys 9/10 of a pound of orange slices. She eats 1/3 of them and divides the rest equally into 3 bags. How much is in eac

frozen [14]

I found how to solve this by pretending the /10 wasn't there and divided 9/3= 3. Next, I subtracted 9-3=6, and because she is splitting 6 into 3 bags she will have to divide 6/3= 2. So in each bag there will be 2/10 pound of orange slices.
