YES IT IS RIGHT.YOU ARE RIGHT
Answer:
There are no simple factors to this expression. You can however solve for x, giving you:
x = -1 ± √(y + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no simple pair of factors to this equation, so we'll have to go through the full process. You can see that by observing that there is no pair of rational numbers that add to make 2 and multiply to make -2. We can however solve for x:

Answer:
8( b - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
8 x ( b - 4 )
8( b - 4 )
I hope this helps!
To check how much Tim will pay to refill the gas tank using one of the on-site pumps, we can create a linear model. We know from our problem that the Renter's charge $4.50 per gallon plus a $5.00 refueling, so let

be the number of gallons and

the total cost.
We also know that the fuel tank in the car is half empty and t<span>he car has a 12-gallon fuel tank, so half tank is 6 gallons. Lets replace the number of gallons in our linear model with 6 to fin the total cost:
</span>



Now, to find how much Tim will pay if he decides to refuel the car on his own, we can also create a linear model.
Let

be the number of gallons and

the total cost. We know form our problem that <span>refueling the car on his own will cost $2.59 per gallon and the late fee charge is $32.
</span>

<span>We already know that half tank is 6 gallons, so
</span>



<span>
Comparing the result of our two linear models we can conclude that the correct answer is: </span><span>
b. It would be cheaper to return the car on time and pay the refueling costs.</span>
