Answer:

C. Greg weighs 180 pounds, and Justin weighs 165 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

let G be the weight of Greg and J be the weight of Justin

G -15=J

G/2 +75=J

G =J+15       (1)

G+150=2J.  (2)

If We substitute G by J+15 in equation (2) we will get:

G =J+15

J+15+150=2J

G =J+15

J+15+150=2J

G =J+15

J+165=2J

then J=165 and G=165+15=180

PLS HELP.... If 4x^2 + bx + 9 = 0, where b is the constant, has exactly one solution, what is a possible value of b ?
IgorLugansk [536]
You can use the discriminant rule, which is :
b^2 -4ac
“exactly one solution” means that it is equal to zero
so:
b^2 -4(4)(9)=0
b^2 -4(36)=0
b^2 -144=0
b^2=144
square root both sides
b=12 or -12

hope this helps !

What is the surface area of a box if it is scaled up by a factor of 10
xenn [34]
If we are scaling up the surface area by a factor of 10 means that the two dimensions of area are each being increased by 10 times the original size. Therefore, the surface area is increased by a factor of 10 x 10, or by a factor of 100.

Help algebra 2 please
34kurt

Answer:

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(f*g)(x) =(x² + x+ 1)*(x² - x -1)

           = x²*(x² - x -1)   + x(x² - x -1) + 1*( x² - x -1)

            = x²*x² - x²*x -x²*1   + x*x² - x*x -x*1 + x² - x -1

            = x⁴ - x³ - x² +x³ - x²  - x  + x² - x -1

           = x⁴  - x³ + x³  - x² - x² + x² - x - x - 1

       = x⁴ - x² - 2x - 1
