Answer:

It would be -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 is 8 points away from 0 on the number line, while 6 is only 6 points away

-8 is farther from 0 on the number line because its absolute value is 8. That's farther away from 0 on the number line than 6 is.

Which number line shows the solution to −6 − (−2)? A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increm
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The correct option is A) A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increments of 2 on either side of the number line. The even numbers are labeled on either side of the number line. An arrow pointing from 0 to negative 6 is shown. Above this, another arrow pointing from negative 6 to negative 4 is shown. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

−6 − (−2)

Open the parentheses and change the sign.

−6 − (−2)

−6 + 2

Subtract the numbers.

−4

Now draw this on number line.

First draw a number line is shown from −10 to 0 to 10. with scale of 2 unit on either side of the number line. Draw an arrow pointing from 0 to −6 Which show −6. Above this, another arrow pointing from −6 to −4 which shows −6 − (−2) = −4. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.

The required number line is shown in the figure 1.

Hence, the correct option is A) A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increments of 2 on either side of the number line. The even numbers are labeled on either side of the number line. An arrow pointing from 0 to negative 6 is shown. Above this, another arrow pointing from negative 6 to negative 4 is shown. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.

Sari is teaching her best friend how to factor trinomials with a leading coefficient greater than 1. She starts with the trinomi
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

See explanation

2x^2+5x+3=(x+1)(2x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as

2x^2+5x+3

2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.

In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.

3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:

2\cdot 3=6

4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:

6=1\cdot 6\\ \\ \bf{6=2\cdot 3}

5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:

2+3=5

6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:

2x^2+5x+3=2x^2+2x+3x+3

7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:

2x^2 +2x+3x+3=(2x^2+2x)+(3x+3)=2x(x+1)+3(x+1)=(x+1)(2x+3)
