Answer:

x = - 2, x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 3x + 2 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 2)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Answer:

x= -2 \ \ or  \ \ x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we break the middle term into two, depending on the factors of the last term.

x^2 + 3x +2 = 0\\x^2 +2x +x +2 = 0\\x(x+2) + 1 (x+2) = 0\\(x+2)(x+1) = 0\\(x+2) = 0 \ \ or \ \ (x+1) = 0\\x+2 =0 \ \ or \ \ x+1 =0\\x= -2 \ \ or  \ \ x=-1

A cookie factory uses 1/6 of a bag of flour in each batch of cookies. The factory uses 5/6 of a bag of flour yesterday. How many
aliina [53]


From the information given, each batch of cookies requires 1/6 of a bag of flour.

So how many batches can be gotten from 5/6 of the bag of flour?

We form an equation

1batch  = 1/6

x batches = 5/6

Where x is the number of batches from 5/6 bag of flour.

Cross multiplying this equation we get:

x * 1/6 = 1 * 5/6

simplify it:

x * 0.16 = 1 * 0.83

x = 1 * 0.83 / 0.16

x = 0.83 / 0.16

x =  5.2

Therefore  factory made approximately 5 batches of cookies yesterday.

The slope of the line y = 4x − 2 is:
Paladinen [302]

Answer: m = 4

Step-by-step explanation: This is a linear equation.

Linear equations can be written in the form y = mx + b where

the multiplier, m, represents the slope of the line and the <em>b</em>

or the constant term represents the y-intercept of the line.

So the slope of this line is simply the multiplier

which is the coefficient of the x term which is 4.

The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.

So we say that m = 4.
