Answer:
84 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
use x to represent the amount of money Laura had when she started shopping.
use y to represent the amount of money she had left after buying a pair of shorts.
You can create these two equations:
3/4x=y
2/3x=42
now, subsitute the value of y into the second equation.
2/3(3/4x)=42
1/2x=42
x=84

a=-8 b=2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+6x-16
x^2+(8-2)x-16=0
x^2+8x-2x-16=0
X(X+8)-2(X+8)=0
