The answer to the question is A
-3(x+5)=-9
-3x-15=-9
+15 +15
-3x=6
-1x=2
1x=-2
x=-2
2x² + 5x -6x - 15 = 0
2x² - x - 15 = 0
2x² -x = 15
x = 3
3 x 3 = 9 x 2 = 18 - 3 = 15
i really don't know how i got 3 in the first place but that is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
1. 8/$12=21/$x then cross multiply.
2. 1/$1.5, we're looking for cost so $1 is more reasonable
3. $31.5
Step-by-step explanation:
12x 21/ 8 = 31.5
