Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The number of paint sets, Suzanne bought= 6

As each set contains the same number of brushes.

Let x be the number of brushes each set contains.

So, the total number of brushes in 6 sets = 6x.

It is given that the total number of brushes she has is 18, which is equals to 6x.

So, the required equation is

6x=18

\Rightarrow x=\frac {18}{6}

\Rightarrow x=3.

Hence, the number of paint brushes each set contains is 3.

Factor this trinomial completely.

First you want to write 7x as a sum or difference: 15x-8x
Now, the expression would look like this: 10x^2+15x-8x-12
Next, factor out the 5x and -4 from the expression: 5x(2x+3)-4(2x+3)
Now, factor out the 2x+3 from the expression and you have your answer:
(2x+3)(5x-4)
