Answer:
use highlighters and go through your notes to highlight important info. I use different highlights for different sections to help separate the information. The different colors on different parts of the notes really help me know what the info for the notes was about and it's good to review them by going over them in color. Hopefully this helps :)
X - shorter piece
3x - 2 - longer piece
x + 3x -2 = 18
x + 3x = 18 +2
4x = 20 | : 4
x=5
3*5 -2 = 15 - 2 = 13
shorter piece: 5 ft
longer piece : 13 ft
I hope this helps
The other two options are (x -5) or (x + 1).
The best way to go about finding this is by dividing. You can do this through synthetic division or by long division.
After dividing by x + 3, you'll be left with x^2 - 4x - 5, which can be factored. To factor, always check factors of the last number that add to the middle number. The factors of -5 are either 1 and -5 or 5 and -1. Since the first pair add to the middle coefficient, use those in the parenthesis.
Answer:
parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Same slope means they are parallel lines
