X=2 because 3 times 2 is 6 and then you add 6 and 7 together and get 13.
6x²+x-12
the first thing we need to do is find 2 numbers that add up to equal the middle term (1) but multiply together to get a product of -72 (-12*6)
two numbers that would fit this is 9 and -8
so now we placed 9x and -8x in place of the middle term
6x²+9x-8x-12
now we look for whats common between the first two numbers and divide them out
6x²+9x = 3x(2x+3)
now we do the same with the last two numbers
-8x-12 = -4(2x+3)
notice how the numbers in brackets are the same (2x+3)
we will keep (2x+3) and then combine the numbers on the outside
once we do that you should get an answer of
(3x-4)(2x+3)
hope this helped!
10.2 x 2 = 20.40
9.4 x 3 = 28.20
Total= 48.60
Answer:
2520 decrease per year
Step-by-step explanation:
8.4% is also .084 so you multiply .084 by 30,000 and get 2520.
Answer:
The 2nd Graph is a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can tell it's a function because if you flatten the individual line segments along the x-axes, they all connect to form one long line.
HOWEVER, if some of the dots at the end of each line segment were empty circles instead, then it would not be considered a function. You can think of these as holes, not allowing the line to connect in those or that area.
