Answer: x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x−x−1=15

3x+−x+−1=15

(3x+−x)+(−1)=15(Combine Like Terms)

2x+−1=15

2x−1=15

Step 2: Add 1 to both sides.

2x−1+1=15+1

2x=16

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x /2 = 16 /2

x=8

Michael and Landon work at a dry cleaners ironing shirts. Michael can iron 40 shirts per hour, and Landon can iron 20 shirts per
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Michael worked 4 hours and Landon worked 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael can iron 40 shirts each hour, so in xx hours he can iron 40x40x shirts. Landon can iron 20 shirts each hour, so in yy hours he can iron 20y20y shirts. The total number of shirts ironed 40x+20y equals 360:

40x+20y=360

40x+20y=360

Since Michael and Landon worked a combined 14 hours, we know x+yx+y must equal 14.

x+y=14

Write System of Equations:

​

40x+20y= 360

x+y=14

Solve for y in each equation:

​

40x+20y = 360  x+y = 14 20y = -40x+360  

\frac{-20y}{20} =\frac{-40x+360}{20}

y = -2x+18

The given trinomial can be factored using the factorization method.

x² -12x + 35
= x² -7x -5x + 35
= x(x-7) - 5(x-7)
= (x-7)(x-5)

Thus, (x-7)(x-5) is the factored form of the polynomial.

So the correct answer is option B
