X^2-8x+15

Break the expression into groups

Factor out x from x^2-3x

Factor out -5 from -5x+15: -5(x-3)

=x(x-3)-5(x-3)

Factor out common term x-3

=(x-3)(x-5)

motikmotik

Answer:

$77$

Step-by-step explanation:

The troop wants to sell a minimum of 1,000 boxes, so we're looking for the smallest number of boxes they can sell and still meet the goal. Since there are 13 girls in the troop, take the ceiling (round up to the nearest whole number) of 1,000 divided by 13:

$\left\lceil \frac{1,000}{13}\right\rceil=\boxed{77}$
