Answer:
In the first one you are missing (x - 3) so it will be 4(x - 3) and if you factor it out it will be 4x - 12
In the second one you are missing a (x -5)which means 9x(x -5) or when you factor it out it will be 9x^2 - 45x
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 -23x + 40 = (3x - 8) (x - 5)
3x^2 -17x + 24 = (3x -8) ( x - 3)
Alvin's age + Elga's age = 84
2R + R = 84
3 R = 84
3/ 3 R = 84/ 3
R = 28
Elga's age is 28
Answer:

Try to solve the similtanious equation to find the first term and the common difference, then use that information to figure out the 80th term... Update me if you need further help ...
Well I tried doing it but depends what your trying to do with the equation but I got
x= -a/3 - 5d/3
