Factor by groupins
x^2 + xy - 2x - 2y
= x(x + y) - 2(x + y)
= (x - 2(x + y)
X = -5
The goal of this problem is to solve for x.
To solve x in this problem you need to find a way to get it by itself on the left side, the way to do this is divide -5x by -5.
You then also have to do the same for the right side. This gives you -5.
Example 1. Let us start with the functionf(x) = x2. We have

So

which means f '(a) = 2a.
What about the derivative of f(x) = xn. Similar calculations, using the binomial expansion for (x+y)n (Pascal's Triangle), yield

So if 24 people chose popcorn and there is a total of 60 people surveyed, the fraction would be 24/60. You still need to simplify the fraction, so divide 24/60 by 4 to get 6/15. Hope this helps. -S
Answer:
72 cubic meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Again to calculate volume you have to take all three measurements given and multiply them like so: x times y times z. In this case x = 4, y = 1 and z = 18. When you multiply all of these terms you get 72 cubic meters.
