1
Step-by-step explanation:
-4 minus -8 is the same as 8 - 4 which is 4 and 4 divided by 4 is 1.
Answer:
In the equation, it divides 21 by x before knowing what x is, and gets it incorrect. Instead, you need to divide 21 by -4.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
-4.2x = 21
-------------
-4.2
x = -5
Answer:
The shape is a reduction, and the scale factor is actually 2/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
X1=-6,x2=1 that the answer
Trust me: You must know how to do this basic factoring yourself.
x^2 -5x - 6 factors into (x-6)(x+1). Note how I got that: -6 is the product of 1 and -6, and -6 + 1 = -5.
You could also factor this by grouping:
x^2 -5x - 6 = x(x-6) + 1(x-6). Note how the middle terms combine to produce -5x and how (x-6) is a factor common to both terms; this leaves (x+1). So the factors are (x-6)(x+1).
