Answer:
hypotenuse
Step-by-step explanation:
If we place what the husband earns as h and what the wife earns as w, we can begin...
w + h = 110000
but w = 2h - 16000
We can turn it into..
2h - 16000 + h = 110000
Which we can then combine into..
3h - 16000 = 110000
Add 16000 and..
3h = 126000
Divide by three...
h = 42000
(nice)
The husband earns 42,000$ a year
Bonus: The wife then earns 68,000$
42,000 (or h) + 68,000 (or w) = 110,000
Because this is the original equation, we are correct.
Answer:
2.8 if rounded, If not rounded, 2.77
The answer is D
3*-42=-126
The factors of -126 that add to -11 are 7 and -18
replace -11h with 7h-18h
3h^2 + 7h - 18h - 42
Factor the first two terms and last two terms
h(3h+7) - 6(3h+7)
See how the two parentheses are the same?
THE ANSWER IS BELOW!!
(h-6)(3h+7)
the first parentheses has the terms that were outside, and the second has the original bracketed terms
This matches option D (it just multiplies the terms backwards, which gives the same result)
