2x(x - 3) + 7(x - 3)
Can I have an explanation on how it works factors

Step-by-step explanation:

2x(x - 3) + 7(x - 3)

2x^2 - 6x + 7x - 21

reduce

2x^2 + x - 21

if this is equal to 0 then:

2x^2 + x - 21 = 0

factored:

(2x + 7)(x - 3) = 0

How that was done:

Divide the (2x^2) into (2x) and (x).

Divide the (-21) into (+7) and (-3). You choose these numbers so that their sum, when multiplied by (2x) and (-3), adds up to (+x).  

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer

solve systems of equations by graphing. a system of linear equations contains two or more equations e.g. y=0.5x+2 and y=x-2. the solution of such a system is the ordered pair that is a solution to both equations. to solve a system of linear equations graphically we graph both equations in the same coordinate system
