The trick here is to notice that all 3 terms can be div. by 2:
2(x^2 + x - 12)
Note that -12 factors into -3 * 4 or -4 * 3. Thus,
x^2 + x - 12 = (x-4)(x+3), and so <span>2x2 + 2x − 24 = 2(x-4)(x+3).</span>
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Data:
Number of people = 6
Amount of Gold to be shared = 40lbs
Subtract 2/3 from your answer.
Therefore
If six people are to share 40lbs of gold evenly
= 40lbs / 6
Divide through by 2
= 20lbs / 3
= 20lbs / 3 - 2/3
= 18/3
= 6
Each person would get approximately 6lbs of gold
