Answer:
(2x+3)(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there is no common number to factor by we must approach this problem differently:
Step 1:
Multiply leading coefficient (2) by the constant term (-3)
2 x -3 = -6
Step two:
Find two numbers that multiply to -6 but add to the middle coefficient (1).
You should find these numbers to be 3 and -2
Step 3:
Replace 1x in the equation with your found numbers
2x^2 - 2x + 3x - 3
Step 4:
Take out the greatest common factor from the first two numbers, and the last two numbers.
For 2x^2 - 2x the greatest common factor would be 2x
For 3x - 3 the greatest common factor would be 3.
Step 5:
Factor out the found common factors
2x(x-1) + 3(x-1)
The values inside the bracket should be the same.
Step 6:
Factor out (x-1)
(x - 1)(2x + 3)
Therefore the factored form is (2x + 3)(x - 1)
Answer:
$5.07
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the total cost of apples first
1.99 * 3 = $5.97
2. Price of the bread
.89 * 2 = 1.78
3. Price of the box of cereal
3.99
4. Gallon of milk
3.19
5. Add all together
And you come up with 14.93 dollars
6. Subtract by 20
20 - 14.93 = 5.07
Answer:
The answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
r- (-12.4) = -15.8
r + 12.4 = -15.8
-12.4 -12.4
r = -28.2
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 1 = -3x + 36
2x + 3x + 1 = -3x + 3x +36
5x + 1 = 36
5x + 1 - 1 = 36 - 1
5x = 35
5x/5 = 35/5
x = 7
