we are given
x^2-4x-5
we can use formula
x^2-(a+b)x+ab=(x-a)(x-b)
so, we have
a+b=4
ab=-5
now, we can solve for a and b
and we get
a=5, b=-1
now, we can plug it in formula
x^2-4x-5=(x-5)(x+1) ............Answer

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that Josh's base salary is:
And, according to the information given in the exercise, Josh makes $70 more for every copy he sales.
Knowing this you can determine that his total pay will be the sum of his base salary and the podruct of $70 and the number of copies.
Therefore, if Josh sells 22 copies, then we get that his total pay is:
X= a number
If 52 is 130% of a number, then we multiply the unknown number by 130%.
x * 130%= 52
convert % to decimal (130%÷100)
1.3x= 52
divide both sides by 1.3
x= 40
ANSWER: The unknown number is 40, so it is less than 52. We multiply the unknown number by 130% to equal 52.
Hope this helps! :)
