Here is the basis equation.

Let us use the AC method. Multiple the A and C values, or 3 and -5. This is -15. So now ask yourself... what multiplies to -15 but adds to -2. that would be, -5 and 3. So now reconstruct your equation ...

The larger number will go first (3>-5)
Now you can factor each group.

Because what is now in the parentheses are qualm and they are being added, you can now make the coeffecients a group

If you are solving for p, set equal to zero and then the answers are -1 and (5/3). If you are just factoring, then that is your answer.
Answer:
a)Decompose the figure into two rectangles and add the areas.
Step-by-step explanation:
i did the unit test and got a 100 and also the two areas would added together would equal the area through the entire figure hopes this helps;)
Answer:
x = 9 and y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the first integer is x and the second one is y. Then, if we put the words into mathematical expressions, we get:
x = 15 + 2y
xy = -27
We can use substitution to solve this system of equations. We put 15 + 2y in for x in xy = -27:
(15 + 2y)*y = -27 ⇒ 2y² + 15y = -27 ⇒ 2y² + 15y + 27 = 0
Now, we have a quadratic to solve, so after some trial and error, we get:
(2y + 9)*(y + 3) = 0
Setting each of these to 0, we get two possible answers for y:
y = -9/2 or y = -3.
However, it says that y is an integer, so it can't be -9/2 and must be -3. We use this to find x:
x = 15 + 2*(-3) = 15 - 6 = 9
So, the two numbers are x = 9 and y = -3.
Answer:
The last container needs one more slice to be filled up.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we know that only 3 oranges can fit into a container.
However, the company has 26 oranges that need to be inside containers.
We can find out the number of containers that will be filled up completely and the remainder left.
We will do this by dividing the number of orange slices available by the number that can fit into a container.
This is 26 / 3 = 8 remainder 2
Therefore, 8 containers will be filled up, with only two oranges left in the last container.
Remember that each container needs up to 3 oranges to be filled up. Since the last container has only 2 orange slices in it, it needs one more slice to be filled up.
15 is a positive value, -3 is a negative value.
A positive value is always greater than a negative value.
The answer is: 15 > -3
