Simple...
you have: 15x+2=17
Isolate the variable (x)-->>>>
15x+2=17
-2 -2
15x=15
x=1
To check it-->>>
15(1)+2=17
17=17
Thus, your answer.
7 (6) + 14!!! And this needs to be 20 characters long so I’m adding this
C. 60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60
1,000: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 40, 50, 100, 125, 200, 250, 500, 1000
Now we find the common numbers. One doesn’t count as when multiplied later on, it will not change anything.
60: 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
1,000: 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
The highest common factor is 20 because it’s, well, the highest number.
D. Do the same thing for D.
24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
880: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 16, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 80, 88, 110, 176, 220, 440, 880
20 and 880: 2, 4, 8
8 is the Highest Common Factor.
E. Do the same thing with E.
90: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90
1,000: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 40, 50, 100, 125, 200, 250, 500, 1000
90 and 1000: 2, 5, 10
10 is the Highest Common Factor.
2x^2 + x + 3=0 has only complex roots.
The determinant is 1-4*2*3 = -23
-23 (or any determinant) is the part under the square root sign, If that determinant is negative, knowing you cannot take the square root of a negative number, we know the answers must be complex.
