Answer:x=−136
Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2+x=
7
8
x−15
2+x=
7
8
x+−15
x+2=
7
8
x−15
Step 2: Subtract 7/8x from both sides.
x+2−

x+2=−15
Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

x=−17
Step 4: Multiply both sides by 8.

x)=(8)*(−17)
Answer:
1 slice will be left because there are 16 slices and 15 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
119 divided by 9 is 13r22
702 divided by 9 is 78
432 divied by 9 is 48
641 divided by 9 is 71r22
<span>372 divided by 9 is 41r33</span>
For part A: you will get 3 linear factors (as the degree of the polynomial is 3). perform the division using (x-1) as your known factor and you will get (x-1)(2x²+11x+15). you can then factor the (2x²+11x+15) to get 2x^3 + 9x^2 + 4x - 15 = (x-1)(2x+5)(x+3)
for part B: since 2x+5 will provide the greatest value (assuming x>0) of the 3 factors, then 2x+5=13. solve to get x=4. if x is 4, then the dimensions are 3'x13'x7' [just sub 4 into the x's for each factor]
for part C: as to the graphing calculator, I don't have one. However, if you solve each linear factor for when it is 0, those values will be the x-intercepts. So your graph should cross the x-asix at 1, -5/2, and -3
The coordinates of the drop off would be (-2,2)
