Answer:
2n - 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
(n+8) + (n−12)
= n + 8 + n - 12
= n + n + 8 - 12
= 2n - 4.
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number x. The statement tells us that
x^2 - 10 = 3x, or
x^2-3x-10 = 0
Factoring:
(x-5)(x+2) = 0. Here, we see that there are two solutions: x = 5 and x = -2. So, the negative solution is x = -2.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
1) Add 6 to both sides.

2) Simplify 21 + 6 to 27.

3) Divide both sides by 9.

4) Simplify 27/9 to 3.

<u>Therefor</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>answer</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>option</u><u> </u><u>B</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>></u><u> </u><u>3</u>.
Starting with x=1, subtract 1 from each side,
(x-1)=0
Our polynomial will have multiplicity of 2 for this particular zero,
(x-1)(x-1)
and do similar with the x=-4, add 4 to each side,
(x+4)=0
So our final result is: (x-1)(x-1)(x+4)
Expand out the brackets if you need this in standard form.
