Answer:
a. x = -9 or x = -2
b. -5(x - 4)
c. x = -3 or x = 5
d. x = ±7
Step-by-step explanation:
a. First person;
y = x² + 11x + 18
y = x² + 9x + 2x + 18
y = x(x + 9) + 2(x + 9)
y = (x + 9)(x + 2)
y = x = -9 or x = -2
b. Second person;
y = -5x + 20
The common factor is 5.
y = -5(x - 4)
c. Third person;
y = x² - 2x - 15
y = x² - 5x + 3x - 15
y = x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5)
y = (x + 3)(x - 5)
y = x = -3 or x = 5
d. Fourth person;
y = x² - 49
Applying the difference of squares formula;
(a² - b²) = (a - b)(a + b)
y = x² - 49 = x² - 7² = (x - 7)(x + 7)
y = (x - 7)(x + 7)
y = x = ±7
Answer:
-5.02
Step-by-step explanation:
the result becomes negative because 7.273 is less than 12.37
Answer:
Jim reached a greater depth by one foot, as he started 12 feet below the surface.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim
12 feet+17 feet = 29
29-3 feet (rose 3 feet) = 26
26+8= 34 feet
Carla
0 feet (surface)+ 19 feet= 19
19-3 feet= 16
16+17= 33 feet
