Answer:
(x - 8)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5x - 24
Consider the factors of - 24 which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
The factors are - 8 and + 3 , since
- 8 × + 3 = - 24 and - 8 + 3 = - 5
Use these factors to split the x- term
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
= (x - 8)(x + 3) ← in factored form
Answer:a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
n=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Clear parenthesis w/ distribution:
3(-7n+1)=-21n+3
Move everything over to one side:
6n+3=-21n+3
6n=21n Subtract the 3 on the right.
-15n=0 Subtract the 21.
n=0 Divide the -15.
