Answer:

No they aren't equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take each expression

the first one is

- (12x+24) - 9x = -12x -24 -9x = -21x -24 = -3 (7x +8)

the second expression

-6 (x+1) = -6x-6

So they aren't equivalent

2 factors that add to 6 but multiply to 60
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The short answer is there isn’t.

Start by writing each of these as an expression:

x * y = 60

x + y = 7

Next, solve each for the same variable; in this case, y:

(x * y) / x = 60 / x

.: y = 60 / x

(x + y) - x = 7 - x

.: y = 7 - x

Next, replace y of the second expression to the first

y = 60 / x & y = 7 - x

.: 7 - x = 60 / x

Now, solve for x:

(7 - x) * x = (60 / x) * x

.: x * 7 - x^2 = 60

This is quadratic, so write it in the form of ax2 + bx + x = 0

(-1)x^2 + (7)x + (-60) = 0

.: a = -1, b = 7, c = -60

Finally solve for b:

x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c)) / 2a

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(7^2 - 4*-1*-60)) / (2 * -1)

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(49 - 240)) / -2

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(-191)) / -2

The square root of a negative value is imaginary and thus there’s no real answer to this problem.

line p contains points A(-7,-9) and B(4,0) line q is parallel to line p line r is perpendicular to line q what is the slope of l
igomit [66]
Use the slope formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(0+9)/(4+7)=9/11
Since q is parallel to r the slope will be the same. 9/11 is the slope of line r
