Now, to find 'x' you will apply the Null Factor Law. This means you will now let 'x' = 0, and simply move the -2 over to the other side to find your answer. Note: since we are using a perfect square, x will only have one value since there is only one answer (x-2) in the brackets, meaning in this case we can ignore the exponent (as the answers will be the same). If there was more than one answer in the bracket (e.g. (x-4) and (x-6)), then we would apply Null Factor Law to both brackets and solve for x.

(x−2)=5

x=5+2

x=7

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct anser is option

B. 2x + 2 = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner up be represented by x

If Dave ate 2 more than twice x, this means that the number eaten by him = 2x + 2

Since the total number of hot dogs eaten by Dave is 18

Therefore, the equation will be

2x + 2 = 18

So the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner-up is determined by solving for x

2x= 18-2

2× = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8

The runner up are 8

While Dave are

2×8 + 2 = 18.

Which of the following fractions is greater than -4/5 but less than -3/4

choli [55]

Answer:

B. -19/25

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for an answer that is greater than -4/5 (which is equal to -0.80) but less than -3/4 (which is equal to -0.75). So, you can easily convert the fractions to decimals by dividing.

-33/50 = -0.66, which is greater than -0.75, so it can be eliminated.

-19/25 = -0.76, which fits our parameters, so it is the answer.

-19/20 = -0.95, which is less than -0.80, so it can be eliminated.

-7/10 = -0.70, which is greater than -0.75, so it can be eliminated.
