162/9 = 18 water bottles per case
If you factor the trinomial using the AC method the answer would be
(x-3)(x+9)
Okay, since quotient is the answer to a division problem, you will divide w and -8. Increased means to add so, you will +7.
w/-8 +7 is what the expression looks like.
the correct answer should be (b) 6 is extraneous.
If you look at the second row of the solution you see (x-6) as a factor in one of the denominators. That's a problem: if 6 were a solution this denominator would become 0. But denominators being 0 is bad (undefined), so while 6 comes out of the algebraic manipulation as a solution, it is invalid, or extraneous.
-3 is a fine solution.
Answer:
A simple way to mentally subtract is to simplify the numbers, subtract, then subtract or add for the simplified answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple way to mentally subtract is to simplify the numbers, subtract, then subtract or add for the simplified answer. For this 304 - 81 is easier as 300 - 80. Make note that we took away 4 from 304 and 1 from 81. Now we just subtract mentally, and 300 - 80 = 220. If we took 4 from 304, this means that our answer should be 4 less, since 4 less would be 304 - 80 = 216. If we took 1 from 81, then we add 1 back to get the equation 304 - 81 = 217.
304 - 81 = ?
300 - 80 = 220
304 - 80 = 216
304 - 81 = 217
