So you have your polynomial. To factor this out, you need to find the factors of -45 that will add up to 3. These two factors would be -5 and 8. So, you have factored your polynomial! (x-5)(x+8). If you are still unsure, simply use the FOIL method to check and see if you get the same polynomial back. Hope this helps!
Direct variation has this equation:
y = kx
where k is the constant of variation
y = -5 ; x = -15
y = kx
-5 = k(-15)
-5/-15 = k
1/3 = k
Choice D. y = 1/3 x
To add 7.5% to a number you simply multiply the number by 1.075. To compound that amount year after year, you raise 1.075 to an exponent that corresponds to the number of years. 2600*(1.075^8)=<span>4637.04234646</span>
4 multiplied by 3.99 will = your answer....Please mark brainliest...
