The two numbers that add up to get -1 and multiply to get -20 are -5 and 4
-5*4=-20
-5+4=-1
I hope this helps
If you break it up:
Three-eighths = 3/8
Sixteen times a number, we'll call the unknown number X, so 16X.
Twenty Four = 24
The sum of 16X and 24 = 16X + 24
We want 3/8 of that sum so we put the sum in parenthesis and we get:
Y = 3/8(16X + 24) where Y is the answer youd get if you knew what X was.
The upper quartile is, Q1, is 45. The lower quartile, Q2, is 85. The interquartile range is 40. I hope this helps!
Assuming that your question is (x-1)(x+2) = [5(x-1)]/x-1
On the right side, the x-1's will cancel out, leaving you with (x-1)(x+2) = 5
expand the left side, giving you x^2 + x -2 = 5
which goes to x^2 +x -7 = 0
the possible values for x are 2.93 and -3.93. I don't think this was your question, so I'll do the other possible question that you might have been asking.
(x-1)(x+2) = 5(x-1)
divide by x-1 on both sides, leaving you with x+2=5
x+2=5
x=5-3
x=3
Answer:
a-3b+4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 (2a−6b+8) =
=1/2*2a-1/2*6b+1/2*8
=a-3b+4
