Let the number of years Brad has been on the soccer team be represented by x, and let y represent the number of years Scott has been on the same team.

From the information given, we formulate the equations:
5y - 2 = x -----(1)

x + y = 10 -----(2)

Now, substituting equation (1) into equation (2):
5y - 2 + y = 10
6y - 2 = 10
6y = 12
y = 2
Next, substituting this value back to find x:
x = 5×2 - 2
x = 8

So, Brad has spent a total of 8 years in the team.

Roxy has received the following quiz scores so far this year: 75, 88, 90, 96, 98, 100 Which box plot represents this data?
Svet_ta [12734]
75,88,90,96,98,100

minimum = 75
Q1 = 88.....this indicates the start of the box
Q2 (the median) = (90 + 96) / 2 = 186/2 = 93....this signifies the line within the box
Q3 = 98....this indicates the end of the box
maximum = 100
                 
                 88_93______98
75_______|      |              |___100

Complete the sentence below. If (3x2 + 22x + 7) ÷(x + 7) = 3x + 1, then (x + 7)(???????) =???? .
Zina [12379]

Response: The outcome is (x+7)(3x+1)=33x^2+22x+7.

Detailed explanation: Suppose that

(3x2 + 22x + 7) \div(x + 7) = 3x + 1,

we need to finalize the subsequent sentence:

(x+7)(???)=???

We have the polynomial division algorithm as follows

\textup{If }a(x)\times b(x)=c(x),\\\textup{then, we have }\\\\\dfrac{c(x)}{b(x)}=a(x)~~~~~\textup{or}~~~~~~c(x)\div b(x)=a(x).

In this equation, a(x) denotes the quotient, b(x) indicates the divisor, and c(x) stands for the dividend.

Using this principle in the current problem, it results in

\textup{since }(3x2 + 22x + 7) \div(x + 7) = 3x + 1,\\\\\textup{so, }\\\\(x+7)(3x+1)=3x^2+22x+7=0.

Consequently, the full sentence would be

(x+7)(3x+1)=3x^2+22x+7=0.
