When using factoring by grouping, the replacement terms will both have the same sign of the original middle term. If the last term is negative, then the signs of the factors will have one of each sign with the “stronger” number (the larger absolute value) matching the middle term. hope this helps
Chris and Jim must replace a <em>total</em> quantity of 17 tyres.
<h3>What is the minimum number of tyres to be replaced?</h3>
In this problem we must use an inequality of the form f(x) ≥ a, where f(x) is the difference between the number of tyres replaced by Jim and the number of tyres replaced by Chris:
(25/20) · x - x ≥ 3
(5/20) · x ≥ 3
x ≥ 12
Then, the <em>minimum</em> number of tyres to be replaced is n = 15 + 12 = 17 tyres.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D. (-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2 + f) = (-15)
(3 . 2) + (3 . f) = (-15)
6 + 3f = (-15)
3f = (-15) - 6
3f = (-21)
f = (-21)/3
f = (-7)
