Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor a trinomial, you need to multiply 'a' and 'c' and see what two number add to equal 'b' but also multiply to equal the product of 'a' and 'c'.
So, what two numbers multiply to equal 16 but simultaneously add to equal 8?
That is +4 and +4. Instead of writing (x+4)(x+4), you can write (x+4)^2, or answer C.
Answer:
-19 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(x + 1) - 3 = -3(x - 4)
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Distribute:</u> -4x - 4 - 3 = -3x + 12
<u>Combine like terms:</u> -4x - 7 = -3x + 12
<u>Add 4x on both sides:</u> -7 = x + 12
<u>Subtract 12 on both sides:</u> -19 = x

Answer: 72 words per minute</h3>
Work Shown:
1 hour = 60 min
2 hours = 120 min (multiplied both sides by 2)
2 hours + 30 min = 120 min + 30 min = 150 min
speed = (number of words typed)/(time taken)
speed = (10800 words)/(150 min)
speed = (10800/150) words per minute
speed = 72 words per minute
