Answer:
x^2 -x -2 = (x -2)(x +1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor x^2 -x -2, you look for factors of -2 that have a sum of -1:
-2 = (-1)(2) = (1)(-2) . . . . . the latter pair has a sum of -1
Then these are the constants in the binomial factors:
x^2 -x -2 = (x +1)(x -2)

<em>Comment on the question</em>
The fact that x^2 +3x -4 is modeled with algebra tiles seems to be irrelevant to the question that is actually asked.
Answer:
8/12 and higher. To ensure an accurate answer, are there other fractions to compare "7/12" to?
Step-by-step explanation:
I think that the number of times you drink all the water in your bottle is independent, because the number of liters you drink depends on how much there is.
Independent- the number of times you drink all the water in your bottle
Dependent- the number of liters you drink
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A = x
Flower garden is in rectangular shape. In rectangle, opposite sides are equal.
2) The entire garden is in rectangular shape. In rectangle, opposite sides are equal.
B + x+ 4 = 10x + 6
Take x and 4 to other side to find the value of B. When taking to other side of equal to sign, the sign of x and 4 will change
B = 10x + 6 - x - 4
B = 10x - x + 6 - 4 {Combine like terms}
B = 9x + 2
3) C + x -2 = 5x -3
C = 5x - 3 - x +2
C = 5x -x - 3 + 2
C = 4x - 1
4) Area of Vegetable garden = length * width
= (5x - 3) * (9x + 2)
Use FOIL method
= 5x *9x + 5x*2 + (-3)*9x + (-3)*2
= 45x² + 10x - 27x - 6
= 45x² - 17x - 6
