For example, the additive inverse of 12 is –12. The additive inverse of –3 is 3. Formally, the additive inverse of x is –x. Note: The sum of a number and its additive inverse is 0.
(6x–1)(6x+1) - 4x(9x+2) = −1
Simplify the left side:
36x^2-1 -36x^2-8x = -1
Combine like terms:
-1 -8x = -1
Add 1 to both sides:
-8x = 0
Divide both sides by -8:
x = 0 / -8
x = 0
The root is 0
The boats would be 7.62 mi apart
A²-5a+6
to factorise you find the common numbers that add to make 5 and times to make 6
soo that means it is
(a-2) (a-3)
at most is either that number or less
so x<=72 would be the inequality
