Answer:
The total number of unbroken / working slots
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Devin's DVD case has 3 rows of slots, but 5 slots are broken
Also given that the number of slots in a row is x
1 row has x slots
3 rows has y slots
on cross multiplication we get y = 3x
ie there are a total of 3x slots in the 3 rows
Given that out of these 3x slots 5 . of the slots are broken
Therefore the total number of working slots = total number of slots - number of slots which are broken
total number of working slots are = 3x - 5
Therefore the given expression is the number of working / good slots

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
x² - 8x + 15 = 0
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 15 on both sides: x² - 8x = -15
- Complete the Square [Addition Property of Equality]: x² - 8x + 16 = -15 + 16
- [Complete the Square] Simplify: (x - 4)² = 1
- [Equality Property] Square root both sides: x - 4 = ±1
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 4 on both sides: x = 4 ± 1
- Evaluate: x = 3, 5
