The answer here is C. The sign of the factors are both positive. We can use the FOIL method as reference in determining the sign of the factors. The 3rd term C is positive; therefore our only option is either both negative or both positive. Looking the middle term, which is positive, we know that the middle term is the sum of the outer and inner in FOIL method, which means, signs of the factors must be both positive
For the first equation, I put it in y=mx+b form, so y=-3x-9
the second one is x=4
hope i helped
x = 6
The average of 4 numbers is 6, which means that (3 + 5 + 10 + x) all divided by 4 is 6. That means that 3 + 5 + 10 + x = 24, because 24/4 is 6.
18 + x = 24, subtract 18 from 24 to get x = 6.
Your answer would be 13,122
You would multiply by -3 each time for this particular sequence.
Hope I helped!
