Answer:
(x - 9)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 6x - 27
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 27) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 6)
The factors are - 9 and + 3, since
- 9 × 3 = - 27 and - 9 + 3 = - 6, thus
x² - 6x - 27 = (x - 9)(x + 3)
x = # of balcony seats
y = # of orchestra seats
We have to create a system of equations to solve this problem
x + y = 256
$8x + $12y = $2,716
We will solve this system of equations by elimination.
Multiply the first equation by -8
-8x - 8y = -2048
8x + 12y = 2716
Let's add the equations together
0 + 4y = 668
Simplify the left side
4y = 668
Divide both sides by 4
y = 167
We can subtract 167 from 257 to get the number of balcony seats.
257 - 167 = 90 balcony seats
There are 167 orchestra seats and 90 balcony seats
What do you mean? the decimal is .35 and u can't simplify it anymore
If you’re saying that 3 pieces costs 2.00 then the answer is 30. 2x10 is the $20.00 so 3x10 = 30 she can buy
