Answer:

a) (2x+7)(x-4)

b) x = -7/2 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (2x  ?)(x  ?)

set up the above and considered factors of 28 that, when paired with 2, would give me -1x and -28  → (1·28, 2·14, 4·7)

after trial-and-error, found that 4 and 7 worked (used un-FOIL)

b) 2x + 7 = 0

2x = -7

x = -7/2

*********

x-4 = 0

x = 4

Len [333]
This means that the bicycle was discounted in total by 60%, so $315 is 40% of the original price to get 40% to 100% youd multiply it by 2.5 so so the same to the price 315 x 2.5= 787.5

X^2 + 6x - 18 solve for x​
Simora [160]

Answer:

x = - 3  ± √27 or if you want it in decimal form correct to  nearest hundredth:

x = -8.20, 2.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 6x - 18 = 0

this will not factor so we use completing the square:

x^2 + 6x = (x + 3)^2 - 9 so:

(x + 3)^2 - 9 - 18 = 0

(x + 3)^2 = 27

x+ 3 = ±√27

x = - 3  ± √27
