(12x^3-4x^2+8x)/(-2x) The greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is -2x so upon division by GCF of both numerator and denominator you have:
-6x^2+2x-4 and we can now also factor out -2
-2(3x^2-x+2)
Answer:
85, 68, 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Average: The sum of all the numbers divided by the number of numbers
If the ratio of the scores is 5 : 4 : 3, let's just set it as 5x : 4x : 3x
Then using the definition of an average, we can write this equation.
(5x + 4x + 3x) / 3 = 68
Multiply both sides by 3.
5x + 4x + 3x = 68 * 3
Simplify.
12x = 204
x = 17
Now, substitute x = 17 into the original scores (5x, 4x, and 3x)
5x = 5 * 17 = 85
4x = 4 * 17 = 68
3x = 3 * 17 = 51
Just in case, let's check this answer. Find the average of the 3 test scores.
(85 + 68 + 51) / 3 =
204 / 3 = 68
Thus, the answers are correct
Answer:
9375
Step-by-step explanation:
a number can be written a "x".
"minus" is a key word for subtraction.
"is" is a key word for =.
So if we put that all together, we have
x-3=5
To solve it, we have to add 3, to cancel it out, and add 3 to 5.
x-3=5
+3 +3
x=8
