Answer:

Your answer is: x = -9

Solve for  x  by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial 24x3 − 54x2 + 44x − 99 is factored by grouping. 24x3 − 54x2 + 44x − 99 24x3 + 44x − 54x2 − 99 4x(____) − 9(____)
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 6x^2+11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial of degree 3:

24x^3 - 54x^2 + 44x -99

You can observe make two groups or two terms each:

(24x^3 + 44x) - (54x^2 + 99)

The Greatest Common Factor (GCF), is the highest number that divides into two or more numbers without leaving remainder.

 You can observe that the GCF of both set are factored out (4x and 9), then, you can find  the common factor that is missing from both sets of parentheses with this procedure:

(\frac{24x^3}{4x}+\frac{44x}{4x})-(\frac{54x^2}{9}+\frac{99}{9})=(6x^2+11)-(6x^2+11)

You can observe that the common factor that is missing from both sets of parentheses is:

6x^2+11

The system of equations
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

z = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is:

xy/(x + y) = 1 ...........................(1)

xz/(x + z) = 2...........................(2)

yz/(y + z) = 3...........................(3)

From (1): x + y = xy

=> y = xy - x

y = x(y - 1)

x = y/(y - 1).......................................(4)

From (2): 2(x + z) = xz

=> 2x + 2z = xz

2x = xz - 2z

2x = z(x - 2)

z = 2x/(x - 2) ....................................(5)

From (3): 3(y + z) = yz

=> 3y + 3z = yz

3y = yz - 3z

3y = z(y - 3)

z = 3y/(y - 3)....................................(6)

Comparing (5) and (6)

2x/(x - 2) = 3y/(y - 3)

2x(y - 3) = 3y(x - 2)

2xy - 6x = 3xy - 6y

6(y - x) = xy .................................(7)

But from (1): xy = x + y

Using this in (7), we have

6(y - x) = x + y

6y - y - 6x - x = 0

5y - 7x = 0

5y = 7x

x = 5y/7................................................(8)

Using this in (4)

5y/7 = y/(y - 1)

1/(y - 1) = 5/7

(y - 1) = 7/5

y = 1 + 7/5

y = 12/5..........................................(9)

Using this in (8)

x = 5(12/5)/7 = 12/7 .......................(10)

Using (10) in (5)

z = 2x/(x - 2)

z = 2(12/7) ÷ (12/7 - 2)

= 24/7 ÷ -2/7

= 24/7 × (-7/2)

= -24/2 = -12

z = -12.

On a coordinate plane, line P Q goes through (negative 6, 4) and (4, negative 4). Point R On a coordinate plane, a line goes thr
Nitella [24]

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

Hope this helps!
