To solve this polynomial equation, we first factor the left side.
To factor x² + 8x + 12 = 0, look for factors of 12 that add to 8.
These factors are 6 and 2 so we have (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.
So either x + 6 = 0 or x + 2 = 0 and solving for
x in each equation, our answer is {-6, -2}.
Answer:
Nicole needs 550 meters of ribbon for making 1,000 bows
Step-by-step explanation:
1,000 * 0.55
or
0.55 + 0.55 + 0.55 + 0.55 + etc...
3x - 1 = 5x - 11
Add 1 to both sides.
3x = 5x - 10
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-2x = -10
Divide by -2.
x = 5
Answer:
y</= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + 1 = 10
9 + 2 < 10
y = anything < 2
