With the b2+b- 12 your gonna want to do this
b2+b-12
b2+4b-3b-12
which is the sum product
after doing that you wanna common the factors from the two pairs. Which is b2+4b-3b-12 then you do you parentheses around b(b+4)-3(b+4) just like that after you do that then you rewrite it in factored form b(b+4)-3(b+4) you then want to rewrite it to this (b-3)(b+4) after that your solution will be (b-3)(b+4) for the first one.
Answer: 5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 1760 yards are in a mile. We can convert the given info into a proportion. 440/75 = 1760/x, where x is the number of seconds it takes to run a mile. Cross-multiply to get 440x = 75*1760. Divide both sides by 440 to get x = 75*4 = 300 seconds. The problem asks for how many minutes so you have to convert 300 seconds to minutes. To do this, we have to divide 300 by 60 to get 5 minutes.
So you have two of those--when you add those together, you get "seven and eight-tenths," or 7.8 The 2 shorter sides are what's left to still measure. If the total perimeter is 10.4, you get the shorter sides by: 10.4 - 7.8 = 2.6, but REMEMBER, the 2.6 is BOTH shorter sides added together, so each ONE of them is 1.3 SO... your hallway/rectangle is 3.9 meters on each long side, and 1.3 meters on each short side. i hope this helps you
