Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
“Lucynell don’t even know what a hotel is,” the old woman muttered. “Listen here, Mr. Shiftlet,” she said, sliding forward in her chair, “you’d be getting a permanent house and a deep well and the most innocent girl in the world. You don’t need no money. Lemme tell you something: there ain’t any place in the world for a poor disabled friendless drifting man.”
The ugly words settled in Mr. Shiftlet’s head like a group of buzzards in the top of a tree.

Which two things are being compared in the last sentence?
Answer:
10a = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
By using elimination:
4a + 2z = 10
-2(3a + z) = -2(-10)
4a + 2z = 10
6a - 2z = 20
2z and -2z cancel out
10a = 30
a = 3
They are asking for 10a, so 10 (3) = 30.
Simplifying
5(7x + -3) = 230
Reorder the terms:
5(-3 + 7x) = 230
(-3 * 5 + 7x * 5) = 230
(-15 + 35x) = 230
Solving
-15 + 35x = 230
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 35x = 230 + 15
35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: 230 + 15 = 245
35x = 245
Divide each side by '35'.
x = 7
Simplifying
x = 7
Factors are related to prime numbers because, a prime number is a number with only two factors: one and itself.
(factors are numbers we can multiply to get another number)
