Louise’s answer is not correct. She is missing the term 30x3. When squaring a binomial, it is best to write the product of the binomial times itself. Then you can use the distributive property to multiply each term in the first binomial by each term in the second binomial. Louise also could have used the formula for a perfect square trinomial, which is found by squaring a binomial.
Its a multiplication by -3 on each term, so I think you're gonna answer is by r=-3, maybe?
Answer:
Each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the bags are identical, Let them Number of candies in each bag sue had be x. Thus, she had 5x candies. Since she lost 25 pieces, then she now has;
5x - 25 candies left.
We are told that Ted had 4 bags with the same number of candies like Sue had. Thus, he has 4x candies.
He mysteriously found 10 additional pieces. Total Ted now has is;. 4x + 10
Finally, we are told that Sue and Ted now have an equal number of candies.
Thus;
5x - 25 = 4x + 10
Rearranging, we have;
5x - 4x = 25 + 10
x = 35
Thus, each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Answer:
if you mean find OS, then:
OS = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
if you mean find OS, then:
8x-51 = 3x-6
5x = 45
x = 9
OS = 2(3x-6)
OS = 6x-12
substitute for x
OS = 6(9)-12 =42
I think it's 7.52 and then 8.52
