MN + NP = MP
6x - 7 + 2x + 3 = 60
8x - 4 = 60
8x = 64
x = 8
MN = 6(8) - 7 = 56 - 7 = 49
answer
x = 8
MN = 49
2 times a number, x, is equal to 6 less than 3 times the number, x.
2x = 3x - 6
-1x = -6
x = 6
The number is 6.
√105 is written in simplest form already.
The answer would be D. √105
Answer:
x^2 - 5x = 14
x^2 - 5x-14 = 0
Now, we have to find the multiples of -14 and numbers that add/subtract to -5; this helps to find the factors.
-7+2 = -5
-7*2 = -14
Based on the above info, we can find out my factors; they are:-
(x-7)(x+2)
