6 × 2 = 12 so 6 is the dilation factor
thus 4 × 6 is PQ which is 24
To start off, you can divide the right side of the equation by x to get rid of most of the x's so you get the polynomial x^4 - 10x^2 + 9. This means that f(x) = x^4 - 10x^2 + 9x. By factoring the right side of the equation, you get f(x) = (x^2 - 1)(x^2 - 9). I think the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 3.
-2(x + 5) = 2 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
-2x - 10 = 2 |add 10 to both sides
-2x = 12 |divide both sides by (-2)
x = -6
-15 - (-3) + 6
-15 - (-3) = -15 + 3 = 3 - 15 = - 12
-12 + 6 = 6 - 12 = -6
Your answer is -6
1. False because a rational is a fraction or part of a number (

).

2. True; a real number is any number that isn't imaginary (

)
3. True; same reason
4. True; an integer is any number that can be wrote without a fraction or decimal (the opposite of rational).
5. True;

and that's a decimal.
6. True; the natural number system starts from 0 and counts upwards
7. True; reason above
