14. (2x - 1)(x + 7) = 0Using the zero factor property, we know that either the first or second terms (or both) must be equal to 0 if their product is 0. We can set each term equal to 0 to find the solutions:
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2
x + 7 = 0
x = -7
15. To solve this equation, you first need to set it equal to 0:
Next, it can be factored:
Finally, we can solve just like we did above:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
16.
First, you can simplify by dividing each side by 4:
Now, set the equation equal to 0:
Next, factor:
Finally, find the solutions:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 5 = 0
x = 5

12/18 = 8/x <=> 2/3 = 8/x <=> x = (3*8)/2 = 12;
Answer:
I came up with -12
Step-by-step explanation:
8 workers = 6 days to complete
x workers = 4 days faster to complete
6/4=1.5 days faster
1.5 x 8 = 12 workers needed to complete the wall in fours days
