Answer:

(2x+1)(3x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

y = 6x² - x - 2

We need to factor out the given expression. For that we may use the middle term splitting method. Taking the equation,

$:\implies$ y = 6x² - x - 2

$:\implies$ y = 6x² - 4x + 3x-2

$:\implies$ y = 2x ( 3x -2) +1( 3x -2)

$:\implies$ y = (2x + 1)(3x -2 )

<h3>Hence the required answer is y = (2x+1)(3x-2)</h3>

6 x -2 = -12

-12 = 3, -4

y = 6x^2 + 3x - 4x - 2

y = 3x(2x + 1) - 2(2x + 1)

(2x + 1) (3x - 2) = 0

2x = -1, 3x = 2

x = -1/2, 2/3

pls give brainliest im trying to level up :))

Given that:

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach, if Zach added 8 to his age and multiplied this sum by 3 .

To find:

The equation that can be used to solve for zach's age.

Solution:

Let the age of zach be Z.

Zach added 8 to his age = Z+8

And multiplied this sum by 3 = 3(Z+8)

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach = 6Z

Now,

$6Z=3(Z+8)$

$6Z-3Z=24$

$3Z=24$

Divide both sides by 3.

$Z=8$

Therefore, the required equation is $6Z=3(Z+8)$ is age of zach is 8 years.

A. you plug in to a calculator, which will give 1840.986 so you need to round up to 1840.99. if you truncate it to .98 then he won't reach 2000 in 3 years

b. for this one if you look at the equation given to find the principle it is principle = result (1+rate) ^ -time

if you re arrange this you get result=principle (1+rate)^time
so result = 1840.99(1.028)^5
= 2113.57
