FOIL is a mnemonic rule for multiplying binomial (that is, two-term) algebraic expressions.
FOIL abbreviates the sequence "First, Outside, Inside, Last"; it's a way of remembering that the product is the sum of the products of those four combinations of terms.
For instance, if we multiply the two expressions
(x + 1) (x + 2)
then the result is the sum of these four products:
x times x (the First terms of each expression)
x times 2 (the Outside pair of terms)
1 times x (the Inside pair of terms)
1 times 2 (the Last terms of each expression)
and so
(x + 1) (x + 2) = x^2 + 2x + 1x + 2 = x^2 + 3x + 2
[where the ^ is the usual way we indicate exponents here in Answers, because they're hard to represent in an online text environment].
Now, compare this to multiplying a pair of two-digit integers:
37 × 43
= (30 × 40) + (30 × 3) + (7 × 40) + (7 × 3)
= 1200 + 90 + 280 + 21
= 1591
The reason the two processes resemble each other is that multiplication is multiplication; the difference in the ways we represent the factors doesn't make it a fundamentally different operation.
7x = -36+10x
X=12
You minus the 10 from 7 (7-10=-3) (-36/-3) gives you 12
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is 14
3/7 • 2 1/14
=14
Answer:
(1, 1), (2, 2.333) and (3, 3.666).
Step-by-step explanation:
So, for x = 1, we have:
4*1 - 3y = 1
3y = 3
y = 1
For x = 2, we have:
4*2 - 3y = 1
3y = 7
y = 2.333
For x = 3, we have:
4*3 - 3y = 1
3y = 11
y = 3.666
The points we need to plot is (1, 1), (2, 2.333) and (3, 3.666).
Answer:
x is in (0, 17)
Step-by-step explanation:
The compound inequality is ...
0 < x < 17
The "equal to" case is not included on either end, so round brackets are used:
(0, 17)
