Please help i need this answered!!

Everything you answered so far looks good. Nice work.

For question 10, we need to find two numbers that multiply to 3(-1) = -3 and also add to 2. The 3 and -1 are the first coefficient and last term. The 2 is the middle coefficient.

Through trial and error, the two numbers we're after are 3 and -1

3 times -1 = -3

3 plus -1 = 2

We break up the 2x into 3x - 1x and factor like so...

3x^2 + 2x - 1

3x^2 + 3x - 1x - 1 ... replace 2x with 3x-1x

(3x^2+3x) + (-1x-1) ... pair up terms

3x(x+1) - 1(x+1) factor each parenthesis group

(3x-1)(x+1) ... pull out the gcf (x+1)

You can use FOIL, the box method, or distribution to go from (3x-1)(x+1) back to 3x^2+2x-1 again.

in the opening of the question the word 'service' is associated only with the pretax value.

the closing part of the question asks: how much did she pay for the

however, the intention of the question provider may have been that your answer is to be
