Answer:
METHOD 1:
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21
5x+7x+7=5x-21
12x+7=5x-21
12x-5x=-21-7
7x=-28
x=28/7
x=4
METHOD 2:
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x
7(x+1)=-21
7x+7=-21
7x=-28
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
METHOD 1:
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21
5x+7x+7=5x-21
12x+7=5x-21
12x-5x=-21-7
7x=-28
x=28/7
x=4
METHOD 2:
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21
5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x
7(x+1)=-21
7x+7=-21
7x=-28
x=4
-1, -2, 2.
Those are the zeros
Hope this helps
To find the mean (average), u add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.
(200 + 150 + 325 + 100 + 75) / 5 = 850/5 = 170 <== the mean
