1. Number that adds up to -12 and multiplied by the same # that gives u -13. Set it up like this because both are negative so, u need 1 negative and 1 positive.
(x-13)(x+1)
2. Same rule applies. GCF
8y(4y+1)
3. (x+3)(x-3)
We can set it up like this, where <em>s </em>is the speed of the canoeist:

To make a common denominator between the fractions, we can multiply the whole equation by s(s-5):
![s(s-5)[\frac{18}{s} + \frac{4}{s-5} = 3] \\ 18(s-5)+4s=3s(s-5) \\ 18s - 90+4s=3 s^{2} -15s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=s%28s-5%29%5B%5Cfrac%7B18%7D%7Bs%7D%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7Bs-5%7D%20%3D%203%5D%20%5C%5C%2018%28s-5%29%2B4s%3D3s%28s-5%29%20%5C%5C%2018s%20-%2090%2B4s%3D3%20s%5E%7B2%7D%20-15s)
If we rearrange this, we can turn it into a quadratic equation and factor:

Technically, either of these solutions would work when plugged into the original equation, but I would use the second solution because it's a little "neater." We have the speed for the first part of the trip (9 mph); now we just need to subtract 5mph to get the speed for the second part of the trip.

The canoeist's speed on the first part of the trip was 9mph, and their speed on the second part was 4mph.
Answer:
m-9
Step-by-step explanation:
12-9= 3
14-9= 5
18-9= 9
27-9= 18
Answer:
12 black beads
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ration of gold beads to black beads on the short necklace:

Since the ratio of 4:1 has 5 total parts, you can take the total amount of beads in the long necklace and divide by 5:
60 ÷ 5 = 12
12 beads represents 1 part of the ratio, so that would be the number of black beads. To check, multiply 12 by 4: 12 x 4 = 48, and set up a ratio:
48: 12 = 4: 1
