ars, is equal to 50.”
Javier writes the equation (10 + two-thirds) a = 50, where a is the tree’s age in years. His equation is not correct. What error did he make?

Answer:

Javier's equation is not correct because the variable "a" should be multiplied by  only and then added to

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

a------>is the tree’s age in years

we have that

-------> Javier's equation

we know that

The equation that represent the situation is equal to

Solve for a

Multiply by  both sides

Factor completely 3x2 - 21.
VMariaS [17]
3x² - 21

Factor 3 from both terms:

3 (x² - 7)

To me, that's as far as you should need to go.  But if you want to get
completely carried away, you could go one step further, since you have
the difference of two squares:

3 (x + √7) (x - √7)

Of course, there's no end now, because the last binomial could be
considered another difference of two squares, so you'd have to
factor that too:

3 (x + √7) (√x + ⁴√7) (√x - ⁴√7)

but to me, this would be nonsense.
