Answer:

x = 6 , -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use foil method

(3x -2)(x + 1) = 3x*x + 3x*1 + (-2)*x + (-2)*1

                   = 3x² + <u>3x - 2x</u> - 2   {Combine like terms}

                    =3x² + x - 2

(3x -2)(x + 1) = 18x + 4

3x² + x -2 = 18x + 4

Subtract 18x  to both sides

3x² + x - 18x - 2 = 4

3x² - 17x - 2    = 4

Subtract 4 from both sides

3x² - 17x -2 -4 = 0

3x² - 17x - 6 = 0

Sum = -17  

Product = (-6)*3 = -18

Factors = 1 , (-18)                 {1*(-18)=-18  ; 1 +(-18) = -17}

3x² - 18x + x - 6 = 0

3x(x - 6) + (x -6) = 0

(x - 6)(3x + 1) = 0

x - 6 = 0          ; 3x + 1 = 0

   x =  6          ;         3x = -1

                                  x = -1/3

x = 6 , (-1/3)

Y=? What is Y? Please help me!
kumpel [21]
Answer:   y = 6 mi.  .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________
Area of a triangle = (½) * (base) * (height) ;

or,  A = (½) * b * h ;  or,  A = b*h / 2 ;
_____________________________________
Given:  A = 24.3 mi ² ;
           b = 8.1 mi 
___________________
Find the height, "h" ;  (in units of "miles", or , "mi" ).
__________________________
   Plug in the known values into the formula:

24.3 mi ² = (½) * (8.1 mi) *(h) ;
_____________________________
Solve for "h" (height) ;
_____________________________
(½) * (8.1 mi) = 4.05 mi  ;
______________________________
Rewrite: 
____________________________
24.3 mi² = (4.05 mi) *(h) ;  Solve for "h" ;
_________________________________________
 Divide each side of the equation by "(4.05 mi)" ; to isolate "h" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "h" ; 
__________________________________________
   24.3 mi²  / 4.05 mi  = (4.05 mi) *(h)  / 4.05 mi ;
                                 
              →  6 mi  = h ;  ↔  h = 6 mi. 

              →      h = y = 6 mi.
