Answer: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that pencils come in packages of 10 while erasers come in package of 12 .

We are further told that Phillip wants to purchase the smallest number of pencils and erasers so that he will have exactly 1 eraser per pencil, this simply means that we have to calculate the lowest common multiple for 10 and 12.

Multiples of 10 = 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60,

Multiples of 12 = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72

Therefore, the packages of pencils and erasers that Phillip should buy will be 60

Divide x^3-3x^2-10x+24 by x-2
melisa1 [442]
You can do this using synthetic division, which is the easiest way.  If x - 2 = 0, then x = 2.  That 2 will go outside the "box" and the leading coefficients of the terms in the polynomial will go inside the "box".  2    (1   -3    -10    24).  Bring down the first number, the 1.  Multiply that 1 by the 2 to get 2.  Put that 2 up under the -3 and add to get -1.  Multiply that -1 by the 2 to get -2.  Put that =-2 up under the -10 and add to get -12.  Multiply that -12 by the 2 to get -24.  Put the -24 up under the 24 and add to get 0.  That means that x - 2 is a factor of the polynomial.  What's left, the bolded numbers, are the coefficients of a new polynomial that is one degree less than the polynomial you started with.  In other words, when we divide your polynomial by x-2, you get x^2-x-12.

Solve 3x + 23 + x = 7. x = −4 x = 4 x = −0.25 x = 0.25
Maksim231197 [3]
<h2>______________________________</h2><h2>Solve for x | Solution and Explanation </h2>

______________________________________________

Hello! So...

We are given the following:

Solve for x.

3x+23+x=7

====================

1. Group the like terms.

  • 3x+x+23=7

====================

2. Add similar elements (3x+x=4x).

  • 4x+23=7

====================

3. Subtract 23 from both sides.

  • 4x + 23 - 23 = 7 - 23

====================

4. Simplify.

  • 4x=-16

====================

5. Divide both sides by 4.

  • \frac{4x}{4} =\frac{-16}{4}

====================

6. Simplify.

  • x=-4 (aka. Option A)

====================

Hope this helps!
