Expand and simplify (3x-2)^2

(3x - 2)^2 is the same as:

(3x - 2)(3x - 2)

use the FOIL method: First, Outside, Inside, Last

3x(3x) = 9x²
3x(-2) = -6x
-2(3x) = -6x
-2(-2) = 4

9x² - 6x - 6x + 4

Combine like terms

9x² (- 6x - 6x) + 4

9x² - 12x + 4 is your answer

hope this helps

7. The length of a rectangle is two more than its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 36 feet. What are the dimensions (len

Reika [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

length = x + 2

width = x

x + x + (x+2) + (x+2) = 36 ft

4x + 4 = 36 ft

4x = 32 ft

x = 32 ÷ 4

x = 8 ft

dimensions = length x width

= (x+2) × x

= (8+2) × 8

= 10 ft × 8 ft

Can anyone help with this question pleasee

Answer:

$y = 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$a^{3y - 5} = \frac{1}{a^2}$

Apply the negative exponent rule

$a^{3y - 5} = a^{-2}$

The bases will cancel each other

$3y - 5 = -2$

$3y - 5 + 5 = -2 + 5$

$3y = 3$

$\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{3}{3}$

$y = 1$
