The answer is B x = -4. x= 3
You must factor the equation by find what 2 numbers can multiply to equal -12 and add to equal 1.
-3 and 4 are the two numbers. Now to put it in factor form would be:
(x - 3)(x + 4) = 0
They y also must equal zero.
Since its equals to 0, we must solve for x for the binomial.
x - 3 = 0 ; x = 3
x + 4 = 0 ; x = -4
The answer you get from solving x, is that answer
Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
- 143,622 bacteria present on day 15
- the bacteria doubles twice a day
that means each day backwards, the bacteria is four times less the day before
therefore:
- on day 14, the number of bacteria is 143,622 / 4
which is 35,905.5
and so on!
so:
- day 13 = 8,976.375
- day 12 = 2,244.09375
- day 11 = 561.0234375
- day 10 = 140.255859375
this rounded to the nearest whole number is
= 140 bacteria
(you can't have a part of a bacteria!)
hope this helps! :)
To get the other factor of the expression x² - 10x + 24, we can use long or synthetic division. We are given that the other factor is x - 6, so we can use that as our divisor. Our setup should look something like this:
x² - 10x + 24 ÷ x - 6
Here is the work using polynomial long division:
<u> x -4 </u>
x - 6 | x² - 10x + 24
<u> </u><span><u>x² - 6x</u>
</span> 0 - 4x + 24
<span><u>-4x - 24</u>
</span> 0
We can see that our quotient is x - 4, which would be the other factor of x - 6 to get x² - 10x + 24. The answer to your query is x - 4. Hope this helps and have a phenomenal day!
There are 12 inches in one foot. If it rains 2 inches per hour and we need one foot we need to look for a number that can be multiplied by 2 to get 12.

The answer is 6
I’m pretty sure this is correct.
