Answer:
(x+4)(x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find two numbers that multiply to be -20 but add up to be -1.
The initial expression is:

So we can solve for r so:
Answer:
4:20
Step-by-step explanation:
because there are 20 teachers in all and 4 science teachers so your chances of getting a science teacher are 4 out of 20
The function has a slope : m = - 2 and contains the point ( 8, 12 ).
y = m x + b
12 = ( - 2 ) * 8 + b
12 = - 16 + b
b = 12 + 16
b = 28
The slope-intercept form of the function is:
y = - 2 x + 28
To effectively determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to write this into an algebraic expression. We let x as the number. We do as follows:
<span>Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108.
4x^2 + 6x = 108
The numbers can be either of the following since the equation generated was a quadratic equation which has two roots.
x = 4.5
x = -6 </span>
