Answer:

(x - 3)(x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 4x - 21

=> x^2 + 7x - 3x - 21

=> x(x + 7) -3(x + 7)

=> (x + 7)(x - 3)

Answer:

(x+7)(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to factor the expression:

x^2+4x-21

When factoring, we want to find two numbers that equals (a)(c) and add up to b. We can then substitute it for b.

So, we want two numbers that when multiplied equals (1)(-21)=-21 and adds up to 4.

We can use 7 and -3.

So:

x^2+4x-21\\=x^2-3x+7x-21

Factor out an x from the first two terms, and a 7 from the third and fourth terms:

=x(x+3)+7(x-3)

Grouping:

=(x+7)(x-3)

And we are done :)

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

18. 20,000.

19. 0

7. 1

11. 101

Step-by-step explanation:

18. I think is stays the same, because an integer is a number that is not a fraction. So still 20,000.

19. Sea level is at zero altitude. So answer is 0.

7. |17-16| = |1| = 1. The lines around it are called absolute value signs and mean to make the answer positive.

11. |-101| = 101. As said before the lines mean to make the inside part positive.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

32\ hair\ ties

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To make one hair ties is needed 3 3/8 inches of elastic

so

using proportion

Find out how many hair ties can you make with 9 feet of elastic

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

Convert 9 ft to inches

9\ ft=9*12=108\ in

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

3\frac{3}{8}\ in=\frac{3*8+3}{8}=\frac{27}{8}\ in

using proportion

\frac{1}{(27/8)}=\frac{x}{108}\\\\x=108*8/27\\\\x=32\ hair\ ties
