The answer to number 1 is B
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two consecutive even numbers is 38. What is the smaller number?
Answer:
8/7
Step-by-step explanation:
(2,-5) (9,3)
3-(-5)=8 because you apply your keep change change
9-2= 7
so 8/7
So firstly, <u>the factor (4n - 5) cannot be further factored, so we will be focusing on 2n² + 5n + 3.</u>
So for this, we will be factoring by grouping. Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6n² and a sum of 5n? That would be 2n and 3n. Replace 5n with 2n + 3n:

Next, factor 2n² + 2n and 3n + 3 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:

Now we can rewrite this expression as<u>
, which is your final answer.</u>
