<span>x^2-2x-24 = (x - 6)(x + 4)
cause
</span>(x - 6)(x + 4)
= x^2 - 6x + 4x - 24
= x^2 - 2x - 24
answer
(x - 6)(x + 4)
hope it helps
1/3, 1/4, 1/5. I didn’t really understand your question so see if that helps?
X=amount of money woman has
n=pounds of sugar
Store #1: 8.5*n=x+30
Store #2: 8*n=x-25
multiply #2 by 17/16 to make coefficient of n same as in #1
2: 8.5*n=17/16(x-25)
Subtract #2 from #1
0=x+30-17/16(x-25)
x+30-17x/16 +25*17/16
x/16=30+25*17/16
x=480+425
=905 cents
=$9.05
