<span>3x - 5 < 4.
Add 5 to both sides,
3x < 9
Divide 3 from both sides,
x < 3
Hope this helps!</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is:
c. Time is an exponent while the other units are factors.
Explanation:
In the compound interest formula, time is the exponent.
Since it is the exponent, this tells us how many times the base is multiplied by itself. As such, it has a larger effect on the answer than any other piece of the equation.
Answer:
When x=8, y=-6. When x=10, y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can plug the given y value into the second equation to get:

Perhaps the most concise way to factor is by "completing the square" which is how the quadratic formula is derived...
x^2+6x+8=0 move constant to other side, subtract 8 from both sides
x^2+6x=-8, halve the linear coefficient, square it, then add that to both sides, in this case (6/2)^2=3^2=9
x^2+6x+9=1 now the left side is a perfect square of the form
(x+3)^2=1 take the square root of both sides
x+3=±√1 subtract 3 from both sides
x=-3±√1
x=-3±1
x=-4 and -2
Since the zeros occur when x=-4 and -2 the factors of the equation are:
(x+2)(x+4)
