The number is 28.
The equation would be:
237 + 6(x) = 405
The problem states that 6 times the opposite of a number, however, since the number sign was not given, we do not know whether it is in a positive or negative form. So we leave it as only x.
237 + 6x = 405
6x = 405 - 237
6x = 168
6x / 6 = 168 / 6
x = 28
To check:
237 + 6 (28) = 405
237 + 168 = 405
405 = 405
Answer:
perfect square trinomial methodIf a polynomial has three terms, x2 + 12x + 36, which factoring method can be considered? Summary: If a polynomial has three terms, x2 + 12x + 36, the perfect square trinomial method can be considered to find the factor of the expression.
(a) A = x(x-4)
(b) A= x^2 - 4x
All you do is add it together so
36+22 = 58
6+4 = 10
58+10 = 68
So your total is 68
