Answer:do u have any diagram
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)(x+6)
x= 4, -6
...........
Answers:
bio = 258
sociology = 169
============================================================
Work Shown:
x = number of bio textbooks
y = number of sociology textbooks
x+y = 427 books sold total
y = x-89 since 89 less sociology textbooks were sold compared to bio
Apply substitution to get the following
x+y = 427
x+x-89 = 427 ... replace y with x-89
2x-89 = 427
2x = 427+89
2x = 516
x = 516/2
x = 258 bio textbooks were sold
y = x-89
y = 258-89
y = 169 sociology textbooks were sold
M=-1/3
that is the answer
This is the answer I came to by hand. Sorry for the handwriting.
