5x+40 factors to 5(x+8). Notice how distributing the 5 back through to each term in the parenthesis gives
5 times x = 5x
5 times 8 = 40
So 5*(x+8) = 5*x+5*8 = 5x+40
Therefore, the factors are 5 and (x+8).
The dimensions of the sandbox are 5 feet by (x+8) feet.
We don't know the numeric value of (x+8) since we don't know the value of x, so we leave it as is.
Answer:
1.85
Step-by-step explanation:
1.75-0.5+0.6= 1.85 or 1 17/20
Given that Trent's watch runs at half the speed it should run, this implies that
for every hour passed, his watch moves by half an hour.
Hence, for every half-hour passed, Trent's watch moves by 15 minutes.
Hence, when the real time is 10:30 am, Trent's watch will show 9:15 am.
A point doesn't have a slope. A line has. You need to find the slope of the line that these 2 points are on. The slope is
(the difference of the 'y' values) divided by (the difference of the 'x' values)
That appears to be zero. It's a horizontal line.
