14.69 in dollars and 6.2 percent
The cost is £79.76. Since the car covers 560 miles and 34.5 miles is travelled by one gallon. So, dividing 560 by 34.5 we get 16.23. Since 1 gallon is 4.55 litres, 16.23 gallons is 73.8465. Now the cost of petrol is £1.08 per litre. So, multiplying 73.8465 by £1.08 we have £79.76
The factors of this expression would be (x+9)(x-2). You have to find two numbers that are factors of -18 that add up to 7. These numbers would be 9 and -2:
(9)x(-2)= -18
and 9 + (-2)= 7
Your answer is C) (x-2).
