To factor the trinomial, you can use the ac method where you multiply the first and last terms together (6 and 9) and add up to 15.
In this case ac= 54
2 numbers that multiply to 54 and add up to 15 would be 6 and 9 so place these numbers where the 15 would be:

Then group terms to simplify:

Simplify any like terms:

And group together again:

You can simplify a 3 out of the first expression one more time to get:

Which would be the factored form. I hope this helps :)
Answer:
6. The number is 
7. The two numbers are
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
Question six can be re-worded to create the following expression:

Solve for x to find the number:

Question seven can be solved by first listing the constraints (assuming x is smaller than y):
- x and y are less than 20


To get the numbers, we can create a system of linear equations. First, solve for
in each expression:


Solve for

Answer:
The model represents the decimal 73.
Step-by-step explanation:
The model is 10x10. You must count the blue blocks. The number of blue blocks is 73, therefore it represents the decimal 73. (Hope this helped!)
