3x² - 33x - 180 = 0
3(x² - 11x - 60) = 0
3(x² - 15x + 4x - 60) = 0
3(x + 4)(x - 15) = 0
3(x - 4) = 0 or x - 15 = 0
3x - 12 = 0 <u> + 15 + 15</u>
<u> + 12 + 12</u> x = 15
<u>3x</u> = <u>12</u>
3 4
x = 3
The answer is equal to H.15 and E. 4.
24.5 x 0.25 = 6.125 acres that will be used for the new park.
24.5 x .72 = 17.65 acres in the second property
1) 3x - 2y = -16 Subtract 3x from both sides
-2y = -3x - 16 Divide both sides by -2
y =
x + 8
2) 9x - 7y = -7 Subtact 9x from both sides
-7y = -8x - 7 Divide both sides by -7
y =
+ 1
3) x - 3y = 6 Subtract x from both sides
-3y = -x + 6 Divide both sides by -3
y =
- 2
