First off, let's keep in mind we're looking for "days worth", how many days does it take to do an amount of cars.
so 12 folks can do in 12 days 40 cars, since each person is working every one of those 12 days, then each of those persons is working 12 days, now, there are 12 folks, that means the combined amount of days will be 12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12, or 12*12, 144 days worth, it takes them to do 40 cars.
so, to the same folks, how many days will it take them to do 30 cars?

that's 108 days worth for doing 30 cars.
for 12 folks, that'd be 108/12 or 9 days, 12 folks can do it in 9 days.
what about 4 folks only? 108/4 or
27 days.
3(3x+4)(2x+5)
Because you factor out the 3 and then factor 6x^2+23x+20
That becomes (6x^2+8x)+(15x+20)
Factor out a two from the left and five from the right.
That makes 2x(3x+4) + 5(3x+4)
That becomes (3x+4)(2x+5)
Then put the three back in front.
18·8.7= 156.6
23·56.1= 1290.3
47·5.92=278.24
The answer is A, all that was needed was to do the math.
