Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 2, b = 1, c = -3
We need to factor this by finding the product of a and c, then from there find which factors of a * c will either add or subtract to give us b.
a * c = 6 and the factors of 6 and 1 and 6, 2 and 3. Well, 6 - 1 doesn't equal 1 and neither does 6 + 1. So our factors are 3 and 2. In order to combine those to get a 1 (our b), we will subtract 2 from 3 since 3 - 2 = 1. That means that 3 is positive and 2 is negative. Filling in the formula with 3 and 2 in place of 1 looks like this (always remember to put the absolute value of the largest number first):

Group the first 2 terms together and the second 2 term together in order to factor:
and factor out what's common in each set of parenthesis.

Notice that when we factor out a -1 from the second set of parenthesis, we can distribute it back in to get the equation we started with. We know that factoring by grouping "works" if what is inside both sets of parenthesis is exactly the same. Ours are identical: (2x + 3). That is common now, and can be factored out:

That matches your first choice
Answer:
20 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of bottles

Penny is 1/100th worth of a dollar
therefore 1 penny is equivalent to - 1/100th of a dollar
then 100 pennies are equivalent to - 1 dollar - $1
then 2004 pennies are worth -

the value is $20.04
answer is $20.04
Answer:
60 squaer feet
So lets seperate the shapes one for the bottom small chunk and one for hte big long large top chunk.
To find area you do height times width. So the bottom would be 3 times 4 which is 12 square feet.
Now the top part would be 4+4+4 which is 12 then times that by 4 and get 48.
Now you add 48 and 12 and you get 60 square feet!
X= -6
