Well, the answer will definitely be negative because there is a minus sign.

-6x=24 - because I took away the 9 from both sides. (33-9=24)

9 is now gone, so now we do 24 divided by -6.

So this means x = -4.

In this case, you have to get -6x on one side, and the digits on the other. To eliminate the +9, you have to subtract it, as you always use the opposite operation. This then gives you -6x=24. You then have to divide 24 by 6, giving you -4. Therefore, x=-4

How do I factor out a constant before factoring out a quadratic? Factor completely: 3w^2-3w-90

pantera1 [17]

$3w^2-3w-90 =0 \ \ \:3 \\ \\w^2- w-30 =0 \\ \\a=1 , \ b= -1 , c= -30 \\ \\\Delta =b^2-4ac = (-1)^2 -4\cdot1\cdot (-30) =1+120=121 \\ \\w_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{1-\sqrt{121}}{2 }=\frac{ 1-11}{2}=\frac{-10}{2}=-5$

$w_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{1+\sqrt{121}}{2 }=\frac{ 1+11}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6 \\ \\ Answer:\\ \\ w^2- w-30 =(x+5)(x-6)$

Mattie is making a collar for her dog. She needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag. She wants the chain to be 40 centime

Fantom [35]

Answer:the total cost of the collar is $5.11

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a collar for her dog, she needs to buy some chain,a clasp, and a name tag.

The length of the chain that she wants to buy is 40 centimeters.

1000 centimeters = 1 meter

40 centimeters = 40/1000 = 0.04 meters.

One meter of chain costs $9.75. Therefore, 0.04 meters of chain would cost

0.04 × 9.75 = $0.39

The clasp is $1.29 and the name tag is $3.43. Therefore, the total cost of the collar would be

0.39 + 1.29 + 3.43 = $5.11

Juarez scored 32 points in a basketball game. He scored twice as many baskets worth 3 points than baskets worth 2 points. How ma

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

8 baskets worth 3 points each and 4 baskets worth 2 points each

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 8 baskets worth 3 points each and 4 baskets worth 2 points each because it says Juarez scored twice as many baskets worth 3 points than the baskets worth 2 points. 4 x 2 = 8

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

6 baskets worth 3 points each and 7 baskets worth 2 points each : wrong because 7 x 2 = 14.

10 baskets worth 3 points each and 1 basket worth 2 points : wrong because 1 x 2 = 2.

4 baskets worth 3 points each and 10 baskets worth 2 points each: wrong because 10 x 2 = 40.
