Lizabeth's reasoning is faulty because in this expression, it's not multiplying 2 negative integers, its multiplying 3 negative integers. And while the product of 2 negative integers equals a positive, the positive product multiplied by another negative will equal a negative.

Answer:

  x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle bisector divides the segments on either side of it so they are proportional. That is ...

A company makes t-shirts and their research shows that that price and demand are related linearly: p = mx + b. They know that in
loris [4]

Answer:

P= -2x +46

Step-by-step explanation:

the relation between price and demand is

P= mx +b ........................1

when demand is 10 shirts price is $26

when demand is 20 shirts price is $6

firstly put P= 26 and x= 10 in 1

26= 10m + b.......................2

secondly put x= 20 and P= 6 in 1

6= 20m + b ............................3

solving  2 and 3 we get

m = -2

putting this value of m in either of 2 and 3 to get b

b= 46

so the final relation obtained by putting m= -2 and b= 46 in 1 we get

P= -2x +46
