Answer:8

Step-by-step explanation:

Truck:car

6:2 or simplified to 3:1, which means 3 trucks for every 1 car.

24 trucks divided by 3 gives you 8.

Answer:

8 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion to model this situation. First, write and simplify the given proportion.

trucks to cars;

6 : 2

Simplify,

3 : 1

Assuming that the rate at which trucks and cars are present in the parking lot is constant, one can make the expression,

trucks : cars

3 : 1 = 24 : x

Where (x) represents the unknown amount of cars. One can use cross products to solve this proportion,

3 : 1 = 24 : x

24 = 3x

Inverse operations,

24 = 3x

8 = x

X + 4 is prime x2 – 9 can be factored using the formula.
Anna71 [15]

We are given two binomials: x+4 , x^2-9.

x+4 can't be factored. Therefore,  it is a prime.

Let us work on x^2-9.

9 could be written as 3^2.

Therefore, x^2-9 = x^2 - 3^2.

Now, we can apply difference of the squares formula to factor it.

We know a^2 -b^2 = (a-b) (a+b).

Therefore,  x^2 - 3^2 can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).

So, x^2-9 is not a prime binomial because it can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).
