Question:

Expand and simplify 5(x - 1) - 3(x + 4)

Answer:

1.) Use the distributive property to solve this equation:

5(x - 1) = 5x - 5

3(x + 4) = 3x + 12

2.) Put it in the equation:

5x - 5 - 3x + 12

3.) Group them:

5x - 3x - 5 + 12

4.) Simplify:

2x - 7
which is the answer.



Hope this helped! :))

So first it’s 5x-5-3x-12( got this using distributive property)
Now we simplify by combining like terms so 5x-3x=2x
And -5-12=-17
Ending to be 2x-17

Which of the following are properties of a perfect square trinomial? Select all that apply.. A.Neither of the perfect squares ca
aliya0001 [1]
Definition 1: Perfect squares are numbers or expressions that are the product of a number or expression multiplied to itself (7 times 7 is 49, so 49 is a perfect square).

Definition 2: <span>Binomials are algrebraic expressions containing only two terms.</span><span />
<span>
</span><span>Definition 3: Trinomials are algebraic expressions that contain three terms. </span><span />

Perfect square trinomials are algebraic expressions with three terms that are created by multiplying a binomial to itself. There are two formulas for perfect square trinomials:
(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2, \\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2.
From these formulas you can see that:
A. <span>"Neither of the perfect squares can have a minus sign" is true statement;
</span>
B. "<span>The first and third terms must be perfect squares" is true statement;
</span>
C. "<span>If the perfect square terms are a^2 and b^2 then the other term must be (ab)^2" is false statement;
</span>
D. "<span>None of the above is a property of a perfect square trinomial" is consequently false statement.
</span>
