Answer:
x = 0, -4 and -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is "3x to the power of 3 + 21x squared + 36x = 0".
We can write this expression as follows :

Taking 3x common.

x = 3

Hence, the solution of the given quadratic equation are x = 0, -4 and -3.
14x - (2x - y) - y
14x + (-1(2x - y)) - y
14x + (-1(2x) - 1(-y)) - y
14x + (-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x) + 1(y) - y
14x - 2x + y - y
14x - 2x
12x
I don't think you're stupid. ^^
Let's take the third term, 8. If n=3, then an should be 8.
The first answer gives 15+2.5*3=22.5.
The second answer gives 15.5+2.5=23.
The third answer gives 15-2.5*3=7.5.
The fourth answer gives 15.5-2.5*3=8.
Choice 4 is correct.
Let's try to actually find the equation on our own.
The equation for an arithmetic series is an=a0+dn where a0 is the term that comes before the first term.
The first term given is 13 and it decreases by 2.5 each time so n=-2.5 and the term that would be before 13 is 15.5.
Thus the equation is an=15.5-2.5n
You will multiply 2 1/4 x 1 1/4 to determine how many pounds of apples Alex buys.
2 1/4 x 1 1/4
9/4 x 5/4 = 45/4 or 11 1/4
