Answer:
a) (2x+7)(x-4)
b) x = -7/2 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (2x ?)(x ?)
set up the above and considered factors of 28 that, when paired with 2, would give me -1x and -28 → (1·28, 2·14, 4·7)
after trial-and-error, found that 4 and 7 worked (used un-FOIL)
b) 2x + 7 = 0
2x = -7
x = -7/2
*********
x-4 = 0
x = 4

Answer:
There are 3 red marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
