Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
In this technique, if we have to factorise an expression like ax2+bx+c, we need to think of 2 numbers such that:
N1⋅N2=a⋅c=1⋅−12=−12
AND
N1+N2=b=−1
After trying out a few numbers we get N1=3 and N2=−4
3⋅−4=−12, and 3+(−4)=−1
x2−x−12=x2−4x+3x−12
x(x−4)+3(x−4)=0
(x+3)(x−4)=0
Now we equate the factors to zero.
x+3=0,x=−3
x−4=0,x=4
Answer:
x = -5.25 or 21/4
Step-by-step explanation:
When break the bracket out, if there is a minus sign in front of the bracket, when we break it out, the sign inside the bracket would become positive:
67 = 18 - (8x - 7)
67 = 18 - 8x - (-7)
67 = 18 - 8x + 7
67 = 18 + 7 - 8x
67 = 25 - 8x or rewrite for easier look: 25 - 8x = 67
25 - 8x = 67
8x = 25 - 67
8x = -42
Divide both side by 8, we got:
x = -42 / 8
x = -5.25 or 21/4
Hope this helped :3
If you were to plot the function y=-x+6, both functions meet at the point (4,2)
Answer: C.
Step-by-step explanation:
C. is the only one with a 3 right next to the x. In 3x, 3 would be the coefficient)
