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!

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The system of linear equations are $y=5+x$ and $x+y=25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast. Let x represent the number of students who chose breakfast and y represent the number of students who chose lunch.

(50 students picked, 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast)

To find : Write a system of linear equations that represents the numbers of students who chose breakfast and lunch ?

Solution :

The number of students who chose breakfast be 'x'

The number of students who chose lunch be 'y'.

The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast.

i.e. $y=5+x$

Now, Total student were 50 and 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast i.e. 25.

So, $x+y=25$

Therefore, the system of linear equations are $y=5+x$ and $x+y=25$
