Answer:

p = 6, q = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the left side and compare to right side

y² + 5y - 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 6 and - 1, since

6 × - 1 = - 6 and 6 - 1 = + 5, thus

y² + 5y - 6 = (y + 6)(y - 1)

Compare with (y + p)(y + q) , then

p = 6 and q = - 1

What is the angle of DBC
Licemer1 [7]
When added, these two angles are supplementary, meaning that their sum is 180. This means that we can do the following to find x, and eventually DBC:

3x+67+4x+50=180
Simplifies to:
7x+117=180
Then by the Subtraction Prop. of Equality:
7x=63
Then divide by 7 on both sides to get that x=9.

We then substitute 9 into angle DBC.
4(9)+50
=36+50
DBC=86
