In order for the equation to be true, one of the factors on the left has to equal zero
So, 2x-3=0 or x-4=0 (the 3 on the left for multiplication doesn’t affect the possible answers for x)
Once you solve them, you conclude that x has to be 4 or 3/2.
Answer:
8x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Judy’s brother Sam has a collection of 96 comic books. We have been asked to find the 10 ways Sam could divide his comic books into equal groups.
This can be done as follows:
96 can be written as 
. Thus, we can either have 2 groups of 48 comics or 48 groups of 2 comics. As we can see we have 2 ways to divide the comic books in equal groups.
Likewise, 96 can also be written as 
. Here, we can similarly see that we can either have 3 groups of 32 comics or 32 groups of 3 comics. As we can again see we have 2 more ways to divide the comic books in equal groups, taking the total number of ways to 4.
Continuing in this manner we will see that we can have 4 groups of 24 or 24 groups of 4, 6 groups of 16 or 16 groups of 6 and lastly 12 groups of 8 or 8 groups of 12 comic books, thus taking the count to a <u>total of 10 ways</u> in which Sam can divide his comic books into equal groups.
Our question has been answered.
To calculate the answer, we subtract $ 14 from the first CD to the total amount spent, which is $ 86.
So:
$ 86- $ 14 = 72
The rest of the CDs cost $ 12.
Then we divide $ 72 between $ 12
$ 72 / $ 12 = 6.
That means that 6 CDs were bought at $ 12 plus the first one bought at $ 14.
So the number of CDs that María bought was 7
