<u> Equation:</u>
x(x - 5) + 3(x + 5)
<u>Steps:</u>
x(x - 5) + 3(x + 5)
<u>Expand:</u>
x(x - 5 ): x^2 - 5x
x^2 - 5x + 3(x + 5)
<u>Expand:</u>
3(x + 5): 3x + 15
x^2 - 5x + 3x + 15
<u>Add Similar Elements: </u>
-5x + 3x
= -2x
Answer x^2 - 2x + 15 Doesn't Factor
Hope that helps!!! : )
Answer:
- multiplier and multiplicand
- factors
Step-by-step explanation:
Different words are used in different contexts. When two numbers are multiplied, one can be identified as the <em>multiplier</em>, and the other the <em>multiplicand</em>.
When two or more numbers or expressions are multiplied, they are often generically referred to as <em>factors</em>. The term <em>factors</em> can also be used to mean <em>prime factors</em>, as when we seek to express a product in terms of its factors.
<h3>
Answer: x-4</h3>
We simply drop the absolute value signs and write whatever is inside
This is because |x-4| is really composed of two equations and it depends on what x is
If x < 4, then we use -(x-4) or -x+4
If x >= 4, then we use x-4
This is from the idea that |x| breaks down into this piecewise function
Replace every x with x-4
Then for each inequality, you would solve for x to get the following
which is the same as
Answer:
you must remember + and + equal to minus
