Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor both expressions
x² - x - 6
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)
The factors are - 3 and + 2 , since
- 3 × 2 = - 6 and - 3 + 2 = - 1 , thus
x² - x - 6 = (x - 3)(x + 2)
-----------------------------------
x² + 3x - 18
consider factors of constant term (- 18) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 3)
The factors are + 6 and - 3 , since
6 × - 3 = - 18 and 6 - 3 = + 3 , thus
x² + 3x - 18 = (x + 6)(x - 3)
Both expressions have a common factor of (x - 3)
Compare with (x - a ), then a = 3

Troy has a basis of $39 per share
total value of shares is $3900
Step-by-step explanation:
On July 1, the date of the gift, the stock was selling for $39 per share.
Troy's basis in the stock = current value of shares
No need to consider the base rate which is in 15 years ago
The current rate of 100 shares = $39 × 100 = $3900
Troy has a basis of $39 per share
total value of shares is $3900
The answer for the question is 17/18
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1/10(x + 130) = -2(3 - x)
x + 130 = -20(3-x)
x + 130 = -60 + 20x
x - 20x = -60 - 130
-19x = -190
x = 10
