Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: There are two ways to solve this question. The faster way is to multiply each side of the given equation by ax−2 (so you can get rid of the fraction). When you multiply each side by ax−2, you should have:
24x2+25x−47=(−8x−3)(ax−2)−53
You should then multiply (−8x−3) and (ax−2) using FOIL.
24x2+25x−47=−8ax2−3ax+16x+6−53
Then, reduce on the right side of the equation
24x2+25x−47=−8ax2−3ax+16x−47
Since the coefficients of the x2-term have to be equal on both sides of the equation, −8a=24, or a=−3.
The other option which is longer and more tedious is to attempt to plug in all of the answer choices for a and see which answer choice makes both sides of the equation equal. Again, this is the longer option, and I do not recommend it for the actual SAT as it will waste too much time.
The final answer is B.

Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a circle you need to find the radius. You find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2. So in this case, the radius is 14. Multiply 14 by pi and square your answer for the area.
Answer:
(x−3) no
(x+2) no
(x−4) yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in the root of each binomial to see if it is also a root of f(x).
f(3) = -42
f(-2) = -12
f(4) = 0
Of the choices available, only (x−4) is a factor of f(x).
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
m(ADB) + m(BDC) = 90°
(3x+9) + (2x -4) = 90°
5x + 5 = 90°
5x = 85
5x/5 = 85/5
x = 17
m(ADB) = 3x + 9
3.17 + 9 = 51 + 9 = 60
Hope this helps ^-^
