One thing wrong is there is not closing parenthasees after x+1
and also, if you multiply it out, the answer is not 8x^2-8x-16 so the factored form given is worng
the real factored out form is 8(x-2)(x+1)
that person forgot the 8 in the front
Answer:
3 miles = 5280 yds
5280 yds > 5,000 yds
in this case 3 miles is greater than 5,000 yards
For the first line we have a slope of (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(2--2)/(1--1)=4/2=2 so we have:
y=2x+b, now solve for b with either of the points, I'll use: (1,2)
2=2(1)+b
b=0 so the first line is:
y=2x
Now the second line:
(1-10)/(4--2)=-9/6=-3/2 so far then we have:
y=-3x/2+b, using point (4,1) we solve for b...
1=-3(4)/2+b
1=-6+b
b=7 so
y=-3x/2+7 or more neatly...
y=(-3x+14)/2
...
The solution occurs when both the x and y coordinates for each are equal, so we can say y=y, and use our two line equations...
2x=(-3x+14)/2
4x=-3x+14
7x=14
x=2, and using y=2x we see that:
y=2(2)=4, so the solution occurs at the point:
(2,4)
It takes the son one and half hours to clean the house. To find this you need the equations F+S=2 and F+1=S. (F=father and S=son) You take the F+1 and substitute it in for S in F+S to get F+(F+1)=2. Then you combined like factors, 2F+1=2, and simplify to get F=.5hr. After this you plug .5 in to F+1=S to get (.5)+1=S, meaning it takes the son 1.5 hour to clean the house.
