Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

- x = 5 - 7x - 17

- x =  - 12 - 7x

- x + 7x =  - 12

6x =  - 12

x =  - 2

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

-x=5-7x-17

<u>⇨ Group like terms:-</u>

-x=-7x+5-17

<u>⇨ Subtract 5-17=-12:-</u>

<u />-x=-7x-12<u />

<u>⇨ Add 7x from both sides:-</u>

<u />-x+7x=-7x-12+7x<u />

<u />6x=-12<u />

<u>⇨ Divide both sides by 6:-</u>

<u />\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{-12}{6}<u />

<u />x=-2<u />

Answer:

1. -m(-8n^2-7n+1)

2. (2w+7c) (v+7c)

5. (q+3r)(q^2-3qr+9r^2)

7. x= - 4/7,  1/9

See below for additional problems and help.

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor polynomials, look for patterns and greatest common factors. When you remove these factors, write the factor and what remains.

For example:

  1. 8mn^2+7mn-m\\-m(-8n^2-7n+1)

Notice the term (-8n^2-7n+1) is left and is the term when the expression is divided by -m.

     2. Factor by grouping is similar. Pull out factors within pairs of term. Separate the terms by parenthesis. If the quantities in the [parenthesis are the same, the factoring has been successful.

(2vw + 7cv) + (14cw + 49c^2)\\v(2w+7c)+7c(2w+7c)

Notice that (2w+7c) is the same. The factoring is complete. The factors are:

(2w+7c) (v+7c)

3 - 6 is similar using specific forms for factoring. To find the forms, look in your notes or at resources on online. Here is one example.

      4. A sum of cubes has the form

a^3 + b^3 = (a + b)(a^2 -ab + b^2).

To use this form, take the cube root of each term. a = q and b=3r.

The factors are (q+3)(q^2-3qr+9r^2)

7-9 all involve factoring and then solving. You solve by setting the factors equal to 0.

7. (7x+4)(9x-1) = 0

(7x+4) = 0                      (9x-1)=0

7x=-4                               9x = 1

x= - 4/7                             x = 1/9

Dawn is having a party. She wants to make punch and the recipe calls for 4 pints of orange juice, 5 cups of apple juice, 1/2 gal
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

1 13/16 gallons

1.8125 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

convert the measures that are not in gallons to gallon

1 pint = 1/8 gallon

4 x 1/8 = 1/2

1 cup =1/16 gallon

5 x 1/16 = 5/16

0.3125

1 quart = 1/4

1/4 x 2 = 1/2

Add these figures togehter

1/2 + 5/16 + 1/2 + 1/2 = 29 / 16 = 1 13/16 gallons
