Emily is 12, Samantha is 14, and Lauren is 16. Basically all you do to solve this problem is add numbers that are two apart until you find something.
Ex. 2+4+6=12 4+6+8=18 so on and so forth.
Answer:
yes because I need to be a good person
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² + 5x = 12
2x² + 5x - 12 = 0
x² + 5x - 24 = 0
factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24. the only pair that adds to 5 is 8 and 3
2x² - 3x + 8x - 12 = 0
split the equation and factor
2x² - 3x = 0 ||| 8x - 12 = 0
x(2x - 3) ||| 4(2x - 3)
therefore the pair is (2x - 3)(x + 4)
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
or
x + 4 = 0
x = -4
