Answer: the answer is
Step-by-step explanation:
15)
4(a+b) + 12
= 4a + 4b + 12
= 4(a +b + 3)
answer is
b) 4(a +b + 3)
16)
x - 4(2x + 2)
= x - 8x - 8
= -7x - 8
answer
-7x - 8
Answer:
-5 2/3 points per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
change / time = (-85 points)/(15 minutes) = -17/3 points/minute = -5 2/3 points/minute
Solution:
iv) Given equation: 
Since we are given two variables, we need to split the original expression into two quadratic expressions as

Factoring x first:

= 
= 

Factoring y now:

= 
= ![-1[ y(y+1) + 1(y+1)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%5B%20y%28y%2B1%29%20%2B%201%28y%2B1%29%5D)
= ![-1 [(y+1)(y+1)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%20%5B%28y%2B1%29%28y%2B1%29%5D)
= 
Therefore, the original expression becomes

The answer is <FGI and <HGD
