Must be in the same units
6 ft/ 24 ft (8yds x 3 = 24 ft)
Let's use yards instead
6 ft = 2 yds
so
2 yds/8 yds again is 1/4
Answer:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 12x - 15
Dividing through by 3:
= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)
We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Answer:
Half of a number is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, add commas between each option so it's easier to read I had a hard time figuring out what the options were because of this.
An equation is a statement that the values of two mathematical expressions are equal. An expression is a collection of symbols that jointly express a quantity. This means there has to be an equal sign when the phrases are put into numerical form.
Twice as much as a number: 2X
12 less than a number: X - 12
Half of a number is 15: X/2 = 15
The difference of 20 and a number: 20 - X
As you can see, only one of these phrases is an equation by definition, and that is X/2 = 15, or half of a number is 15. That's because it's the only one that values two expressions as equal.
All you have to do is substitute x for 3.
You get:
14.50 times 3
14.50 times 3 is 43.50
The answer is $14.50
