(m+2)(m+3)= (m+2)(m-2)
⇒ m^2+ 3m+ 2m+ 6= m^2 -4
⇒ 5m+ 6= -4 (m^2 on both sides cancels out)
⇒ 5m= -4-6
⇒ 5m= -10
⇒ m= -10/5
⇒ m= -2
The final answer is m=-2~
Answer:
6 items are being purchased
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that variable p represents the number of items being purchased, and the variable t represents the time required to ring up the customer, If it takes 44 seconds to ring up a customer then the number of items being purchased may be computed by substituting the value of t into the given equation
t = 4p + 20.
Using t = 44
44 = 4p + 20
collect like terms or subtract 20 from both sides
44 - 20 = 4p
24 = 4p
Divide both sides by 4
24/4 = p
p = 6
(x+6)(x+8) = 0
x = -6 or x = -8
I'm just wondering, does the equation happen to be 2x^2 + 14x + 48? That would make more sense with the answer I got.
