Answer:

(x+2)(x−10)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-8x-20

Factoring means something like this:

(x+_)(x+_)

Add together to get -8

Multiply together to get -20

think of the two numbers

Try 2 and -10:

2+-10 = -8

2*-10 = -20

Fill in the blanks of with 2 and -10 to get

(x+_)(x+_) = (x+2)(x−10)

I hope it's right!

If the Semi Monthly is $4,000

Andreyy89

Disclaimer- this is all assuming that "semi monthly" means twice a month. if it doesn't, ignore this answer

A- if semi monthly is half a month, then 4 times 2 is 8, and 8 times 12 is 96,000.

B- If there are 4 weeks in a month and 4000$ accounts for half of that pay, then the weekly pay is 2000, making the bi-weekly pay 1000.

C- The monthly pay is 8,000$ because 4,000 x 2 is 8,000

D- The weekly pay is 2,000$ because the monthly pay is 8,000$ and there are 4 weeks in a month

E- I do not know the hours at this job and therefore cannot answer this

Answer(s):

Exact Form: x + 2 y − 3 z = 15 , 2 x − 2 z = 6 , 3 2 3

Mixed Number Form: x + 2 y − 3 z = 15 , 2 x − 2 z = 6 , 3 2 3

Improper Fraction Form: x + 2 y − 3 z = 15 , 2 x − 2 z = 6 , 11 3

Decimal Form: x + 2 y − 3 z = 15 , 2 x − 2 z = 6 , 3. ¯ 6

Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D
