Rewriting the equation as a quadratic equation equal to zero:
x^2 - x - 30 = 0
We need two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -30. In this case, it would have to be 5 and -6. Therefore we can also write our equation in the factored form
(x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
Now we have a product of two expressions that is equal to zero, which means any x value that makes either (x + 5) or (x - 6) zero will make their product zero.
x + 5 = 0 => x = -5
x - 6 = 0 => x = 6
Therefore, our solutions are x = -5 and x = 6.
Oh this question is kinda tricky. At first glance it’s 1 : 1.5 but notice the units. The model car is 10 inches long and the actual car is 15 feet long.
I think you know where to go from there, but 15 feet * 12 inches = 180 inches.
10 : 180 simplifies to 1 : 18 inches
