I feel sorry for Becky and Tommy. The one who didn't come up with x=-10/3 made an error.
first bring 8x to the left and -25 to the right and simplify:
-4x-8x = 25+15 => -12x = 40
x = -40/12 = -10/3
I think the question is
Find the value of c so that (x-5) is a factor of the polynomial

The other factor is going to be some quadratic. We can say a few things about its coefficients but let's start by saying in general it's



Equating respective coefficients,




so we get



Answer: -37
Check:

Do you mean like this?
Y = -x - 4
Y = x
x = -x - 4
2x = -4
x = -2
Therefore y = -2
Answer:
x=58, m<DCB=56°
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok the sum of those two angles should equal 180 degrees so,
2x+8+x-2=180
solve the equation
3x+6=180
3x=174
x= 58
M<DCB=x-2--> 58-2=56
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the circumference of a circle is
.
The length of an arch can be found by using the ratio of circumference to the arc.
First, find the circumference of the circle:

Then you find the ratio:
The length of the arc is 90/360, which is 1/4, of the circumference.
Finally, find the length of the arc:
or 
I hope this helps :)
