Factor completely 3x ^2 -27

Tom [10]

First, factor out a 3.
3(x² - 9)

In any quadratic ax² + bx + c, we can split the bx term up into two new terms which we want to equal the product of a and c.
In this case, we have x² + 0x - 9. (the 0x is a placeholder)
We want two numbers that add to 0 and multiply to get -9.
Obviously, these numbers are 3 and -3.

Now we have 3(x² + 3x - 3x - 9).
Let's factor.
3(x(x+3)-3(x+3))
<u>3(x-3)(x+3)</u>

There are multiple shortcuts which you could make here, FYI:
Instead of splitting the middle, if your a value is 1, you can go straight to that step (x+number)(x+other number).
Whenever you have a difference of squares, like a²-b², that factors to (a+b)(a-b).

Two payment options to rent a car: You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A) or pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B).

BaLLatris [955]

You must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Two payment options to rent a car

Let "x" be the number of miles driven in one day

<em><u>You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A)</u></em>

25 cents is equal to 0.25 dollars

OPTION A : 20 + 0.25x

<em><u>You pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B)</u></em>

50 cents equal to 0.50 dollars

Option B: 10 + 0.50x

<em><u>For what amount of daily miles will option A be the cheaper plan ?</u></em>

For option A to be cheaper, Option A must be less than option B

Option A < Option B

$20 + 0.25x < 10 + 0.50x$

Solve the inequality

Add -0.50x on both sides

$20 +0.25x -0.50x < 10 + 0.50x - 0.50x\\\\20 - 0.25x < 10$

Add - 20 on both sides,

$20 - 0.25x - 20 < 10 - 20\\\\-0.25x < -10$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}$

$0.25x > 10$

Divide both sides by 0.25

$x > 40$

Thus you must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
