Answer:
x = -3 or x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve: x^2 -2x = 15
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
Use the Diamond method of factoring
-15 = 3* -5 and 3 - 5 = -2 so...
x^2 - 2x - 15 = x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15
x^2 - 2x - 15 = x *(x - 5) + 3*(x - 5)
x^2 - 2x - 15 = (x + 3)*(x - 5)
x^2 - 2x - 15 = (x + 3)*(x - 5) = 0
solve (x + 3 ) = 0 and (x - 5) = 0
x = -3 or x = 5
2.50x=90
X stands for the number of times he can ride the bus.
To solve this, you'd take 90/2.5 which is equivalent to 36. He would be able to ride the bus 36 times.
B is consider to be the y-intercept. If you plot those two points and draw a line connecting the two. The line would go through (0,14). Making 14 the y-intercept and the correct answer.
You can make 6 different towers. If red was at the bottom, there'd be two different possibilities for that: red, yellow, blue, and red, blue, yellow. Same for if blue was at the bottom: blue, red, yellow, and blue, yellow, red. Yellow also applies: yellow, red, blue, and yellow, blue, red. 3*2=6, so 6 possible towers.
The answer is D you put 10/5 then simplify
