25 - 7 = 18 | 18 - 3 = 15 The school received 15 kits in the box. The reason why is because there are 3 kits that they haven't received yet. Then there were 7 that they already had, so that means there are 10 kits that wont be included in the box.

You can write an equation like this:


7 + x = 25 - 3


The amount they have (7) plus the amount they received (x) is 3 less than the amount they need (25). It simplifies to:


7 + x = 22


To solve, isolate the variable by subtracting 7 from each side:


x = 15


The box contained 15 kits.

Evaluate the expression (-4+4i)(1+4i)(1+4i) and write the result in the form a+bi
allsm [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 of the 3 binomials are identical I would start the distribution there.

(1 + 4i)(1 + 4i) = 1+8i+16i^2

I'm sure you have learned in class by now that i-squared is = to -1, so we can make that substitution:

1 + 8i + 16(-1) which simpifies to

1 + 8i - 16 which simplifies further to

-15 + 8i.  Now we need to FOIL in the last binomial:

(-15 + 8i)(-4 + 4i) = 60-60i-32i+32i^2

Combine like terms to get

60-92i+32i^2

Again make the substitution of i-squared = -1:

60 - 92i + 32(-1) which simplifies to

60 - 92i - 32 which simpifies, finally, to a solution of:

28 - 92i
