Answer:

  x = -2 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation can be factored:

  (x +2)(x +3) = 0

The solutions are the values of x that make the factors be zero.

  x + 2 = 0   ⇒   x = -2

  x + 3 = 0   ⇒   x = -3

The solutions are x=-2 or -3.

_____

The product (x +a)(x +b) is ...

  (x +a)(x +b) = x^2 +(a+b)x + ab

Comparing this to the above equation, we see that the product of 'a' and 'b' must be 6, and their sum must be 5. When we look at the factors of 6, we find a couple of choices. The correct one is easy to see.

  6 = 1×6 = 2×3

The sums of factors are 1+6=7 and 2+3=5, so it is the latter pair that is of interest. It does not matter which we call 'a' and which we call 'b'. Once we find two numbers whose sum is 5 and product is 6, we can fill in the binomial factors:

  x^2 +5x +6 = (x +2)(x +3) = 0

Answer:

(x+3)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

take x^2 and take it apart. so it should be (x+  ) (x+  ) then take 6 and make it so it's multipuls equal 5. ur answer should be (x+3)(x+2) or vice versa.

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The drop in temperature is 42-(-54)=42+54=96℉. Rate of drop is 12℉. So it will take 96/12=8 hours.

Another way: -54-42=-96, -96/-12=8 hours.

The equation 5m=36.25 models a constant rate situation. What is the value of 7m
Bond [772]

Answer:

7m = 50.75

Step-by-step explanation:

5m=36.25

We can solve this for m by dividing each side by 5

5/5m=36.25/5

m = 7.25

We want to find 7m

7(7.25) = 50.75
