First, the factor pairs for 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6
Since the middle term is -3, the two factors must be 3 apart. The only pair that is 3 values apart is 3, 6.
Since the middle value is negative, the larger number is negative. This means that the 6 is negative.
z = -6
z = 3
Set each equal to 0;
z = -6
z + 6 = 0
z = 3
z - 3 =0
So your factors are (z+6) and (z-3), or answer B.
-10 or X=1.25

Given:
Henry can type 3500 words in 70 minutes.
Colin can type 1500 in 30 minutes.
Brian can type 2200 words in 40 minutes.
To find:
The person who types at the fastest rate of words per minute.
Solution:
We know that,

Using this formula, we get



Since 55>50, therefore Brian's types at the fastest rate of words per minute.
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know they will have the same output, we can set them equal to each other in an equation. We'll use x to represent the input.
3x + 6 = 8(x + 2) (Given)
3x + 6 = 8x + 16 (Distributed the 8)
6 = 5x + 16 (Subtracted 3x on both sides)
-10 = 5x (Subtracted 16 on both sides)
-2 = x (Divided 5 on both sides)
Answer:
The standard deviation of the sample is 0.0064.
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard deviation of a sample of length n of a population with standard deviation
is given by the following formula:

In this problem, we have that:
61 randomly selected gas stations. This means that 
The standard error of the mean is $0.05. This means that
.
What is the standard deviation of the sample?

The standard deviation of the sample is 0.0064.
