Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No she is not correct because 2 times 3a is 6a and -2 times 2 is -4. And then 6a plus 4a is 10a. So therefore the equation would be 10a -4 which is not equivalent to 10a -2. Hope this helps you

No, she's not correct. The first expression is equal to 2 and the second expression is equal to 12. So, it's NOT CORRECT.

$x^3+14x^2+45x$

Answer

$\begin{gathered} x^3+14x^2+45x \\ =x(x^2+14x+45) \\ =x(x^2+5x+9x+45) \\ =x(x+5)(x+9) \end{gathered}$

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "c. translate circle J by (x-a, y-b) and dilate by a factor of t/s." Circle J is located in the first quadrant with center (a, b) and radius s. Felipe transforms Circle J to prove that it is similar to any circle centered <span>at the origin with radius r.</span>
