To factor out completely, we should have reached the most simplified form,
first we should take out 2.
2(x2 - 3x - 18)
then we should factor out the inside of the parenthesis,
2(x - 6)(x + 3)
And that's the most simplified and factored out form.
The final answer is then the second option, <span>2(x − 6)(x + 3)</span>
Answer:
8x-20
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute:
=(6)(2x)+(6)(−3)+(−2)(2x)+(−2)(1)
=12x+−18+−4x+−2
Combine Like Terms:
=12x+−18+−4x+−2
=(12x+−4x)+(−18+−2)
=8x+−20
Answer:
=8x−20
Both numbers have the variable x so you add 5 and 12 which gives you 17 and you need to write the variable. The answer is 17x
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first-day ride be x
Then the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x)
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x)
hence for the four days the distance covered is
65=x+1.5x+1.5*1.5x+1.5*1.5*1.5x
65=x+1.5x+2.25x+3.375x
65=8.125x
divide both sides by 8.125 we have
x=65/8.125
x=8mile
the first-day ride be x=8miles
the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
=1.5*8= 12miles
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x) = 18miles
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x) = 27miles
