Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x-4x-2 = -8x+2 is the only one with a solution.
-5x-4x-2 = -8x+2
-x-2 = 2
-x = 4
x = -4
Number of pounds of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds and number of pounds of almonds is 4 pounds.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Given total pounds of mixture = 12 pounds, cost of macadamia nuts per pound = $9, cost of almonds per pound = $5.25, total cost of mixture per pound = $7.75.
Let number of pounds of macadamia nuts be x and number of pounds of almonds be 12-x.
Step 2:
Form an equation using the above information.
⇒ 9x + 5.25 (12-x) = 12 × 7.75
⇒ 9x + 63 - 5.25x = 93
⇒ 9x - 5.25x = 30
⇒ 3.75x = 30
⇒ x = 8
Number of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds.
Step 3:
Calculate number pounds of almonds
⇒ Number of pounds of almonds = 12 - x = 4 pounds.
Answer:
Values that make it equal:
-4, -3, -1, 0, 4
Written equivalent inequality:
h≥−4
Step by Step for the written inequality:
h/4 ≥−1
Multiply both sides by 4. Since 4 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
h≥−4
I hope this helps you!! :)
Yes; you are correct.

Answer choice: [C]: " x³ − 9x² + 23x <span>− 12 " .
___________________________________________________
Note: (a </span>− b) (c − d + e) = ac − ad + ae − bc + bd − be ;
___________________________________________________
(x − 4) (x² <span>− 5x + 3) =
x * x</span>² = x³ <span>−
x * 5x = 5x</span>² +
x * 3 = 3x <span>−
4 * x</span>² = 4x² <span>−
-4 * 5x = -20x +
-4 * 3 = -12;
________________________________________
</span> (x − 4) (x² − 5x + 3) =
x³ − 5x² + 3x −4x² − (-20x) + (-12) ;
= x³ − 5x² + 3x −4x² + 20x − 12 ;
= x³ − 5x² − 4x² + 3x + 20x − 12 ;
= x³ − 9x² + 23x − 12 ; which is:
