Factored Form:
x^2 - 4x - 5
Simplifying:
x^2 + - 4x + - 5 = 0
Reorder the terms:
- 5 + - 4x + x^2 = 0
Solving for variable " x":
Subproblem 1:
Set the factor ( - 1 + - 1x) equal to Zero and attempt to solve.
Simplifying:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Solving:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add 1 to each side of equation:
- 1 + 1 + - 1x = 0 + 1
Combine Like Terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x = - 1
Divide each side by - 1
x = - 1
Simplifying: x = - 1
Subproblem 2: Set the factor (5 + - 1x) equal to Zero attempt to solve
Simplifying:
5 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add - 5 to each side of the equation
5 + - 5 + - 1x = 0 + 5
Combine Like terms: 5 + - 5 = 0
0 + - 1x = 0 + - 5
- 1x = 0 + - 5
Combine Like Terms: 0 + - 5 = - 5
- 1x = - 5
Divide each side by - 1
x = 5
Simplifying:
x = 5
Solution:
x = { - 1, 5}
Answer when factored:
(x + 1)(x - 5)

Answer: 3x + 5 = 57.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the price of one video game is x. Jamie bought 3 video games so the expression will be:
= 3x
His sister talked him into buying two $1.50 candy bars and a $2.00 drink. The total of this is:
= 1.50 + 1.50 + 2.00
= $5.00
The total amount spent on both the video game and the snacks is $57.50. Equation will therefore be:
3x + 5 = 57.50
Answer:
B)making sure she has a positive credit history
Step-by-step explanation:
Yoko is buying a car from a local car dealership. She wants to get the lowest interest rate possible.
B) making sure she has a positive credit history - will most likely help her get the lowest interest rate.
Getting low interest rates does not depend on the way you talk or if you have a driver licence.
It depends on your previous credit history and credit scores. When you have good scores, this means you have always paid your debts on time and this makes sure that you will do the same in future.
So, you get low interest rates based on good credit history.
Answer:
- See attachment for table values
- y₁ = y₂ for x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, put the x-value in the formula and do the arithmetic. If you're allowed, you can save some time and effort by realizing that the solution (x) will have to be an even number.
y₁ is an integer value for all integer values of x. y₂ is an integer value for even values of x only. y₁ and y₂ will both be integers (and possibly equal) only when x is even.
For example, for x = 6, we have
... y₁ = 3·6 - 8 = 18 -8 = 10
... y₂ = 0.5·6 +7 = 3 +7 = 10
That is, for x = 6, both columns of the table have the same number (10). That is, y₁ = y₂ for x = 6. The solution to the equation
... y₁ = y₂
is
... x = 6.
