Answer:
4) x = -3 or 8
Step-by-step explanation:
We factories each algebraic expression
4) x² -5x - 24 = 0
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 = 0
(x² - 8x) + (3x - 24) = 0
x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) = 0
(x + 3)(x - 8) = 0
x + 3 = 0, x = -3
x - 8 = 0, x = 8
x = -3 or 8
Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation:
The diameter of the semicircle is 16 feet.
He calculates that he needs to buy abut 25.12 feet of fencing.
To find amount of fencing we find the circumference of semicircle
Circumference of semicircle = 
Where d is the diameter of the circle
d= 16 given and value of pi is 3.14
Circumference of semicircle = 
=25.12 + 16 = 41.12 feet
Scott's calculation was wrong because he forgot to add the diameter d
Circumference of circle is half way of circle plus the diameter of circle.
Correct amount of fencing = 41.12 feet
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to say that:
Mary's amount is x.
Ashley's amount is y.
Oscar's amount is z.
Mary has at least 3 times the amount of cash that ashley and oscar have combined
Ashley's and Oscar's combined amount is y + z.
3 times this amount is 3(y + z).
At least 3 times means that z is equal or greater than 3(y + z).
So
