Answer:
164
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+7+5x+12=180
7x+19=180
7x+180-19
7x=171
---- ----
7 7
x=164
Simplify 2/3 - 1/7 to 11/21
10/21 + 11/21
Simplify
The answer is 1.
Answer:
x + 65 <u>< </u>108
Step-by-step explanation:
The fact that the coefficients are pairwise identical (except for sign) tells you that x^2 -1 is a factor (and x-5 is the other factor). Of course, you recognize x^2-1 as a special form (the difference of squares) that is factored as (x +1)(x -1).
The zeros are x = -1, +1, +5.
