Answer:
(x-8)(x+7)
Step-by-step explanation:
using quadratic formula we have
x= 
we have:
x^2-x-56=0
a= 1 b=-1 c=-56
so we have:
x=(-(-1)+-sqrt(1^1-4*(1)*(-56)))/(2*1)
x=1+-sqrt(1-4*(-56))/(2)
x=(1+-sqrt(225))/2
x=(1+-15)/2
so we have the roots:
x1=(1+15)/2 =8
x2=(1-15)/2=-7
so the answer is (x-8)(x+7)
Answer:
Tom has 70 cards, and Harry has 28 cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = number of cards Harry has.
Then the number of cards Tom has is 2 1/2 * h = 2.5h.
Together they have 2.5h + h = 3.5h number of cards.
Together they have 98 cards.
3.5h = 98
h = 98/3.5
h = 28
Harry has 28 cards.
Tom has 2.5h = 2.5 * 28 = 70
Answer: Tom has 70 cards, and Harry has 28 cards.
Let's plug in (18,10) into each answer choice until we find the one that has it as a solution.
A) 2x - y = 26
2(18) - 10 = 26
36 - 10 = 26
26 = 26
Your answer is A.
I'll just do the rest to show that you the they are incorrect.
B) x + y = 18
18 + 10 = 18
28 ≠ 18
C) 2x - 2y = 36
2(18) - 2(10) = 36
36 - 20 = 36
16 ≠ 36
D) x - y = -28
18 - 10 = -28
8 ≠ -28
Your answer is A) 2x - y = 26.
2nd one maybe I’m not to sure srry
