hi <3
multiply the coefficient of x^2 with the last value:
2 x 3 = 6
you need to find a value that multiplies to give 6 and adds to give 5
this would be 3 and 2
now you have:
(x + 3)(x + 2)
we need to incorporate the 2 into it
you can divide the 2 by 2 so that part is fine. however, as 3 cant be divided by 2, you have to carry the 2 up as a coefficient for x
your final answer works out to be:
(2x + 3)(x + 1)
hope this helps :)
Answer:
The answer is that z = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Once you solve you get z = 3
-8z + 12 = -12 you subtract -12 from both sides to get rid of the positive 12
-12 = -12
__________
-8z = -24
__ __ divide -8 both sides
-8 -8 two negatives equal a positive
z = 3
4c + 4t + 3s = total number of legs
example : Lets say u have 3 chairs (c) and 2 tables (t) and 4 stools (s)...
4c + 4t + 3s =
4(3) + 4(2) + 3(4) =
12 + 8 + 12 = 32 legs...then u would have 32 legs
