Answer:
x= 20 x =-5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 – 15x – 100 = 0.
What two numbers multiply to -100 and add to -15
-20 * 5 = -100
-20 +5 = -15
(x-20) (x+5) =0
Using the zero product property
x-20 =0 x+5 = 0
x= 20 x =-5
For eliminating you need to have a variable that cancels the other out and in this case 2x and -2x do. Then you want to take -3y+9y and add the numbers after the equal sign. -9+3
b. Every 24 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
A neon sign blinks every 6 minutes, and another sign blinks every 8 minutes.
The first step is to:
Find and list multiples of each time each neon sign blinks.
This means, we find the Multiples of 6 and 8
Multiples of 6:
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
Multiples of 8:
8, 16, 24, 32, 40
The first and common multiple of 6 and 8.
Therefore, the Least common multiple [LCM(6, 8) ] = 24
Hence, they often blink at the same time every 24 minutes.
Therefore, option b.Every 24 minutes is correct.

Answer:
yor mom
Step-by-step explanation:
85/15 is 5 2/3
so, to find 85% with 15%, you would multiply 12 (also 15%) by 5 2/3.
12*5 2/3=68.
you could also find it using the 1% method:
1% of 15 is .15.
.15*85=68.
Hope this helps!
