Mary = (1/3)x
Erin = x - 8
John = x
Here is your equation:
(1/3)x + (x - 8) + x = 267
Take it from here.
Answer: C) Find the factors of c that add up to b.
==============================================
Explanation:
If we want to factor something in the form x^2+bx+c, then we look for two numbers that
-------------
Let's look at a specific example
Consider factoring x^2+5x+6
We need to find two numbers that...
- Multiply to c = 6
- Add to b = 5
Through trial and error, you should find the two numbers to be 3 and 2. This means it factors to (x+3)(x+2). The order of the factors doesn't matter.
You can use the FOIL rule or the box method to expand out (x+3)(x+2). You should get x^2+5x+6 again.
Answer:
Desmos says (-4.303 and -0.697)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the 6x element as there is no solution in integers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(-2) means that -2 is going to be our input in this function.
To solve this, simply substitute -2 for x in the expression given.
If f(x) = 3x+1, then f(-2) = 3(-2) + 1
3(-2)+1 = -6+1 = -5
Hope this helped!
