Answer:

(x-6)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Why this is, is because of the negative signs. You have to find two numbers that when times together equaled 6, but when minused equaled -5. That would be -6 and 1. So you just put those in parenthesis to get (x-6)(x+1).

Answer:

$33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Addy had 20% off coupon.

The coupon took $8.25 off of the shirt price.

Lets assume the original cost of shirt be "x".

We know Addy had 20% off coupon, which help to reduce the price of shirt by $8.25.

∴ We can form an equation to know the original price of shirt.

⇒ $\frac{20}{100} \times x= \$ 8.25$

⇒ $\frac{1}{5} \times x= \$ 8.25$

Multiplying both side by 5

⇒ $x= 8.25\times 5$

∴ $x= \$ 41.25$

Hence, The original cost price of shirt was $41.25.

Next, finding the price paid by Addy for her new shirt by reducing coupon discount from the cost of shirt.

Price paid by Addy for her new shirt= $\$ 41.25- \$ 8.25= \$ 33$

Hence, Addy paid $33 for her new shirt.
