Answer:
1/6 + 1/2 = 1/6 + 3/6 = 4/6
SIMPLIFIED IS = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m assuming what you’re asking here is how to *factor* this expression. For that, let’s rearrange the expression into a more familiar form:
-c^2-4c+21
From here, we’ll factor out a -1 so that we have:
-(c^2+4c-21)
Let’s focus on the quadratic expression inside the parentheses. To find our factors (c + x)(c + y), we’ll need to find two terms x and y that multiply together to make -21 and add together to make 4. It turns out that the numbers -3 and 7 work out perfectly for that purpose (-3 x 7 = -21 and 7 + (-3) = 4), so substituting them in for x and y, we have:
(c + (-3))(c + 7)
(c - 3)(c + 7)
And adding back on the negative from a few steps earlier:
-(c - 3)(c + 7)
Answer:
no values of x make the equation true
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that her work is correct, then the final step gives
4 = 5 ← meaningless
This indicates that the equation has no solution
For the first line start at -1 and from there go up to and to the right three
for the second line on nuber one start at 4 and down 1 and to the left 1
