How do I Factor -12 out of -24k + 120

Mathematics
2 answers:
Minchanka [31]3 years ago

Divide each piece by -12

(-24k)/(-12) = 2k

120/(-12) = -10

So we go from -24k+120 to -12(2k-10)

We can use distribution to check if we got the right answer

-12(2k-10) = -12*(2k) - 12(-10) = -24k + 120

So the answer is confirmed.

Answer:

-12(2k-10)

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide each term by -12, and then put -12 outside of the parenthesis. The parenthesis contain the new equation you just created.

Jalil and Victoria are each asked to solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x. Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x becaus
Iteru [2.4K]
<span>solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x:

1) Group the x terms together on the left:     ax - bx - c = d

2) Group the constant terms together:          ax - bx = c + d

3) factor out x:                                             x(a - b) = c + d

4) Divide both sides of the equation by (a - b) to obtain a formula for x:
                                                       c+d
</span>           x(a - b) = c + d   =>    x = ---------
                                                       a-b

This shows that the given equation CAN be solved for x, but there is a restriction:  a must NOT equal b, because if a-b = 0, we'd have division by zero (which is not defined).

Where is Victoria's solution?  Please share it if you want to discuss this problem further.  Thank you.
