Factor completely 3x2 - 21.

Mathematics

3x² - 21

Factor 3 from both terms:

3 (x² - 7)

To me, that's as far as you should need to go.  But if you want to get
completely carried away, you could go one step further, since you have
the difference of two squares:

3 (x + √7) (x - √7)

Of course, there's no end now, because the last binomial could be
considered another difference of two squares, so you'd have to
factor that too:

3 (x + √7) (√x + ⁴√7) (√x - ⁴√7)

but to me, this would be nonsense.

3x^2-21=3(x^2-7)=3[x^2-(\sqrt7)^2]=3(x-\sqrt7)(x+\sqrt7)

Rent a truck charges a daily rental of 39$ plus 0.16$ per mile. a competing agency, ace truck rentals, charges 25$ a day plus 0.
charle [14.2K]
39 + 0.16m = 25 + 0.24m
39 - 25 = 0.24m - 0.16m
14 = 0.08m
14 / 0.08 = m
175 = m <=== they will cost the same at 175 miles

39 + 0.16(175) = 39 + 28 = $ 67
25 + 0.24(175) = 25 + 42 = $ 67
they will both cost $ 67 <=====

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

x > -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 5.1 (3 + 2.2x) > -14.25 - 6 (1.7x + 4)

2) 15.3 + 11.22x > -14.25 - 10.2x - 24

3) 15.3 + 11.22x > -38.25 - 10.2x

4) 11.22x + 10.2x > -38.25 - 15.3

5) 21.42x > -53.55

6) x > -2.5

Alternate forms

x > -5/2x or x > -2 1/2
