Since its x + 3 we use -3


-3| 2      1      -8      21           (these are the # without the x)
___________________

            -6     15     -21      
-------------------------------
    2      -5      7        0               
 
Drag the 2 down, multiple it by -3 to get -6 
1+(-6) = -5. -5 * -3 =15 . 15+(-8) = 7
7*-3 = -21. -21 +21 = 0 
Since last # is 0 we have a factor.


 factor is 2x^2 -5x -7 (we start with a power 1 less the original.)

X^2 - 4x + 3 how do I factor the expression completely
Ipatiy [6.2K]
Bx must be the sum of the numbers in the bracket and c must be the product. So we need to choose 2 numbers that multiply to make 3 and add to make -4.

A negative x negative = positive so
-3*-1=3
-3-1=-4

Therefore:
(x-3)(x-1)

fgiga [73]
The two-way table is attached.

We know that 63 people took the survey, and 22 of them were left-handed.  This means that 63-22=41 of them are right handed.

Out of the 63 total, 37 are left brain dominant; this means that 63-37=26 are right brain dominant.

Of the 26 that are right brain dominant, 21 are right handed; this means 26-21=5 are left handed.

Of the 22 left-handed people, 5 are right brain dominant; this means 22-5 = 17 are left brain dominant.

Of the 37 left brain dominant people, 17 are left handed; this means 37-17=20 are right handed.

Chazmire purchases 14 bags of flour for her bakery.Each bag of flour cost $2.47. How much does chazmire soend for flout
solong [7]

Answer:

$34.58

Step-by-step explanation:

If each bag of flour cost $2.47, then;

1 bag = $2.47

To calculate the cost of 14bags;

14 bags = x

x is the cost of 14 bags

Divide both expressions

1/14 = 2.47/x

cross multiply

1 * x = 14 * 2.47

x = $34.58

Hence Chazmire spent $34.58 on flour
