Our task here is to find possible factors of <span>x^2 + 27x + 162.
We need to check out possible factors of 162 first. Examples are:
2(81), 3(54), 6(27), 9(18), and so on. Notice that 9 and 18 add up to 27, so that the factors (x+9) and (x+18) produce x^2 + 27x + 162 when mult. together.</span>
Let the distance be x miles
Time = Distance / speed
Time taken by Mike to go to his friend's house = x / 40 hours
Time taken by him to return = x / 45 hours
Total time = x / 40 + x / 45 = 4 hours
= 9x + 8x = 1440 miles
17x = 1440
= x = 1440 ÷ 7
= x = 84.706
Time taken to return home = 84.706 /45= 1.882 hours .
Therefore , Mike took 1.882 hours to reach home .

Basically, you are to find the line that passes through 2 points.
Equation: y2-y1=m(x2-x1)
• x1: 6, x2: 5, y1: 1, y2: 4
(4-1)/(5-6)=m
m=3/-1
m=-3
Hence, m= -3x10^0
• x1: 7, x2: 4, y1: -3, y2: -8
(-8--3)/(4-7)=m
m=(-8+3)/-3
m=-5/-3
m=5/3
m=1.66666667
Hence, m=1.6667x10^0
• x1: -8, x2: 1, y1: 0, y2: 5
(5-0)/(1--8)=m
m=5/(1+8)
m=5/9
m=0.55555556
Hence, m=5.56x10^-1
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Very similar to solving an equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use the properties of equality to "undo" each number and isolate the letter to one side.
How ever, if you are multiplying or dividing by a negative number, then the inequality must be reversed.
(This picture from onlinemathlearning.com might help if you're still confused.)
If you divide 55 by 11 you get 5. You then divide 30 by 5 too and you get x=6
