Use distributive property
5k - 6k -8 = 5x + 4
Combine like terms
-k - 8 = 5x + 4
add 8 to both sides
-k = 5x + 12
k = -5x- 12
The dimensions of the prism can be 2x, 2x+3 and x+6.
We first factor out the GCF of the trinomial. The GCF of the coefficients is 2. Each term has an x in common as well, so the GCF is 2x.
Factoring out the 2x, we have
2x(2x²+15x+18).
To factor the remaining trinomial, we find factors of 2*18=36 that sum to 15. 12*3 = 36 and 12+3 = 15. We split up 15x into 12x and 3x:
2x(2x²+12x+3x+18)
Now we group together the first two terms in parentheses and the last two:
2x((2x²+12x)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the first group:
2x(2x(x+6)+(3x+18))
Factor out the GCF of the second group:
2x(2x(x+6)+3(x+6))
Factoring out what these have in common,
2x(x+6)(2x+3)
Answer: 54.4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the distance to the train station. If it took Carlos 4 hours to come back driving at 68 mph, the distance is:
= Speed * time
= 68 * 4
= 272 miles
This means that Carlos drove for 5 hours to cover 272 miles the first time. His average speed was therefore:
= Distance / time
= 272/5
= 54.4 mph
C 1 to 7 because 4 add 3 is 7 and 4 take away is 1 so 1 to 7 is the answer hopefully that makes sense to you.
You would round up 3465 to 3470 and round up 2716 to 2720, the difference would be 750
