Answer:
4(k - 3)(3k + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
12k² - 16k - 60 ← factor out 4 from each term
= 4(3k² - 4k - 15) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the k² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the k term
product = 3 × - 15 = - 45 , sum = - 4
Factors are - 9 and + 5
Use these factors to split the middle term
3k² - 9k + 5k - 15 → ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms
= 3k(k - 3) + 5(k - 3) ← factor out (k - 3)
= (k - 3)(3k + 5)
Hence
12k² - 16k - 60 = 4(k - 3)(3k + 5) ← in factored form
The two possible answers are w = 3 and w = -1/5
These answers can be obtained through solving to the absolute value symbols.
<span>−2∣5w−7∣+9=−7 ---> subtract 9 from both sides
</span><span>−2∣5w−7∣= -16 ---> divide both sides by -2
</span>∣5w−7∣= 8
Now, because of the absolute value symbols, set the inside equal to 8 and -8 for the two answers.
5w - 7 = 8
5w = 15
w = 3
AND
5w - 7 = -8
5w = -1
w = -1/5
100 is the correct answer
Answer:
He would pay a total of $21.50
Step-by-step explanation:
A trick that I learned is to take the zeros and decimals off. Then multiply. Ex) 75 × 2 =150. Take away the zero (15) and ad the decimal (1.5)
I'm not the best at explaining but I hope this helps
