2x-8=5x+5
5x-2x=-8-5
3x=-13
x=-13/3,
or
x=-4 1/3
<span>If the walkers start at nine and want to join the cyclists at
noon, they will have been walking for 3 hours. At 5 km/h, they would have
walked for 15 km. The cyclists can travel 15 km at 12 km/h in 1.25 hours.
Therefore, the cyclists can start their journey at 10:45 am.</span>
Answer:
B. (x+2) is a factor
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 -x-14
3x^2+6x-7x-14
3x(x+2)-7(x+2)
(3x-7)(x+2)
so, x+2 is a factor of 3x^2-x-14
