Answer:

3x(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x^2 - 3x

To factorize the above, do the following:

x is common to both terms. Therefore, it can be written as:

x(6x - 3)

A careful observation of the above equation suggests that 3 is also common to both terms. Therefore it can be written as:

3x(2x - 1)

Therefore, 3x(2x - 1) is the factorized equation for 6x^2 - 3x

<h3>Answer:   3x(2x - 1)</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

We can rewrite 6x^2 into 3x*2x, and we can write 3x as 3x*1

So 6x^2 - 3x can be turned into 3x*2x - 3x*1

Note the repeated "3x". This is the GCF that can be factored out

3x*2x - 3x*1 = 3x(2x-1)

I'm using the distribution rule that says a*b - a*c = a(b - c)

--------

To check the answer, multiply the outer 3x term with each term inside

3x*2x = 6x^2

3x*1 = 3x

So that's how we go from 3x(2x-1) back to 6x^2 - 3x

Together, Dien and Jane can eat 2/3 of a pizza in 4 seconds. How long would it take each of them to eat the whole pizza alone if
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

  • Dien - 15 seconds, Jane - 10 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Together:</u>

  • 2/3 of pizza ⇒ 4 seconds
  • Full pizza ⇒ 4 ÷ 2/3 = 6 seconds

Dien needs  x seconds to eat pizza

Jane needs  x - 5 seconds to eat pizza

<u><em>In one second, Dien can eat 1/x, Jane can eat 1/(x - 5), together 1/6 of a pizza</em></u>

  • 1/x + 1/(x - 5) = 1/6
  • x(x - 5) = 6(x + x - 5)
  • x² - 5x - 12x + 30 = 0
  • x² - 17x + 30 = 0
  • (x - 15)(x - 2) = 0
  • x = 15 (x = 2 is discounted as not realistic)

Dien can eat a pizza in 15 seconds, Jane can eat a pizza in 10 seconds

What number is it that, when multiplied by 18,27,36,45,54,63,72,81, or 99, gives a product in which the first and last figures a
allsm [11]

The given multipliers are factors of 9, the possible number will have 1 as first and last digit which gives the number as 101

<h3>How can the correct number be found?</h3>

The given numbers are;

18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 99

Given that the first and the last figures are those of the multipliers, we have;

The first and last and last digit of the number can be 1, which gives;

Possible numbers includes; 11 and 101

By trying the possible numbers, the difference found is presented as follows;

99 × 11 = 1089 (The first and the last digit are not the same as the multiplier)

  • 99 × 101 = 9999 (First and last digit are not the same as the multiplier)

90 × 11 = 990

90 × 101 = 9090

The correct option is therefore 101

  • The number is 101
