When you end up with prime numbers for example
If you factored out 12 you could say 3x4. Now 3 is a prime number so it cant be broken down any more. You can break down 4 into 2x2. 2 is a prime number so cant be broken down any further. When 12 is factored out it is 2x2x3
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Pull out like factors :
-3x - 6 = -3 • (x + 2)
Solve : -3 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solve : x+2 = 0
Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation :
x = -2
Answer:
It is not direct variation
Step-by-step explanation:
y/7 = 2/x
y = 7×2/x
y = 14/x
And
y = k/x
k = 14 which is the constant of proportionality
: y ∞ 1/x
This is inverse variation
