40x=280 x=7
x equals 9
For x-2x= 3x-43x+1 x-2x= -x and 3x-43x+1 = -40x+1 so -x= -40x+1 subtract -x from both sides 0= -39x +1 -1 = -39x so 1=39x so x=1/39
X3 + 13X2 + 40X factor out an X X(X2 + 13X + 40) factor the quadratic expression, what two factors of 40 add up to 13? X(X + 8)(X + 5) works the same if that is a negative in front of X3, just sign changes
Multiply These Equals What you mix 50 .10+x 5+50x Plus what you have 90 .10 9 Equals what you need 40 x 40x 5+50x+9=40x 14+50x=40x 10x=14 x=1.4 140%
