Because the polynomial has degree 2, we can assume that there are 2 solutions (roots), whether real or imaginary.
You can subtract 60 in order to put this in standard form
48x^2+44x-60 = 0
From there, just put a,b, and c into the quadratic formula and you're good to solve for your answers.
(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
(-44+-sqrt(44^2-4(48)(-60)))/2(48)
Then solve.
There is probably a better way, but this should give you the two roots/solutions.
Technically nothing times 3 get you 16 but 3 times 5 equals 15 which is the closest answer but the answer would be 5.3
For every new answer in the sequence, you subtract 7
65/3=21 with 2 leftover
(2/3)/3 or 2/3•1/3 = 2/9
so either they didn’t get to share or each got 2/9 of the leftovers
Answer: yes
