If we were to foil
after experieence

we know
ax²+bx+c=0

and
in form
(ax+b)(cx+d)=0
if we expand it, we get
acx²+bcx+adx+bd=0
or
(ac)x²+(bc+ad)x+(bd)=0
compare to
ax²+bx+c=0
we notice that the middle terms (x terms) are

b=(bc+ad)
so

in form
(2x-1)(1x+5)
b=bc+ad=(-1*1+2*5)=-1+10=9

b=9
or you could just expand it

Simplify and determine the coefficient of (-2/5x)(5y)(-2x).
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Solution/Answer : 4

Solution: the first you do is multiply the last two parentheses to get -10xy


Now we are left with ( -2/5x)(-10xy)
Then we multiply that out into
(-2*-10)/5*x^2y = 20/5x^2y =
4x^2y

The coefficient in this case would be four. (In case you were confused about what a coefficient actually is, it’s the number you multiply a variable by)

Hopes this helps :)

Janey paints a block of wood with gold glitter for an art project. The block measures 8 inches by 10 inches by 20 inches. After
goldenfox [79]
160 square inches

if the block is cut after it’s been painted, two sides with the same measurements don’t have glitter on them. you find the area of the one rectangle and multiply it by 2 as follows:
A = length • width
A = 10 • 8 = 80
area that needs to be covered = 80 • 2 = 160 square inches
