Answer:
• Gayle: 14
• Crystal: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g represent the number of paperclips Gayle has. Then 42/g is the number Crystal has. The relationship between the two numbers is said to be ...
g - (42/g) = 11
Multiplying by g gives ...
g^2 -42 = 11g
g^2 -11g -42 = 0 . . . . subtract 11 g to put into standard form
To factor this, you are looking for two factors of -42 that sum to -11.
-42 = -42·1 = -21·2 = -14·3 = -7·6
You can see that -14 and 3 sum to -11, so the factoring is ...
(g -14)(g +3) = 0
g = 14 . . . . . . . . . . makes the product zero. (The g=-3 solution is extraneous.)
Gayle has 14 paperclips and Crystal has 3.
X2 + 4x - 21
Answer: (x + 7)(x - 3)

Answer:
I think you meant 40% off. If so...
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to turn 40 into a decimal - .40.
Then you multiply 30*.40 and get 12.
Subtract 12 from 30 since you are saving 12 dollars.
This means you spend $18 and saved $12.
So, your final answer would be $12.
Hope this helps :)
