z^2 - z - 72
z^2 - 9z + 8z - 72
<u>Step 1</u>: 72 = 9 * 8 and when we subtract -9+8 = -1 and that's how I went from z^2 - z - 72 to z^2 - 9z + 8z - 72.
<u>Step 2</u>: Taking out common value from first and second; and third and fourth.
z^2 - 9z = z(z - 9)
8z - 72 = 8 (z - 9)
z^2 - 9x + 8x - 72
z(z-9) + 8(z-9)
(z-9) (z+8)
Look at the exponent and move the decimal that many places ( to the right for a positive number and to the left for a negative number)
Answer:
The answer is y+3/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract fractions, find the LCD and then combine.
Hoped this helped!
Could I perhaps have brainly?
1/2k + 6 = 4k - 8
1/2k - 4k = -8 - 6
1/2k - 8/2k = -14
-7/2k = -14
k = -14 * - 2/7
k = 28/7 which equals 4
