Answer:
X= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
x+x+2+3x-6=31 Combine x's
2x+2+3x-6=31 Continue to combine x's
5x+2-6=31 Combine whole numbers
5x-4=31 Add 4 to both sides
5x=35 Divide by 5
x=7
52/8 = 6
6*8 = 48
52-48 = 4
So 52 = 6*8+4
The quotient is 6, the remainder is 4.
We can use FOIL to solve.
(x + 7)(x + 10)
(x * x) + (x * 7) + (7 * x) + (7 * 10)
x² + 7x + 7x + 70
x² + 14x + 70
Best of Luck!
