Simplify (x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – (3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
The first thing I have to do is take that "minus" sign through the parentheses containing the second polynomial. Some students find it helpful to put a "1" in front of the parentheses, to help them keep track of the minus sign.
Here's what the subtraction looks like, when working horizontally:
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – (3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – 1(3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – 1(3x3) – 1 (–8x2) – 1(–5x) – 1(6)
x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4 – 3x3 + 8x2 + 5x – 6
x3 – 3x3 + 3x2 + 8x2 + 5x + 5x – 4 – 6
–2x3 + 11x2 + 10x –10
And here's what the subtraction looks like, when going vertically:
x

−(3x

+3x
2
−8x

+5x
−5x
−4
+6)
In the horizontal addition (above), you may have noticed that running the negative through the parentheses changed the sign on each and every term inside those parentheses. The shortcut when working vertically is to not bother writing in the subtaction sign or the parentheses; instead, write the second polynomial in the second row, and then just flip all the signs in that row, "plus" to "minus" and "minus" to "plus".

Either way, I get the answer:

(2x^3-6x-4)/x if your simplifying that's the answer
Answer:
The length of the hypotenuse is 5 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the hypotenuse is
,
with a and be being the two shorter sides of the triangle, while c is the hypotenuse.
Let's plug in our values for a and b and solve.

16 + 9 = 
25 = 
What is the square root of 25? 5.
The length of the hypotenuse is 5 inches.
When you reflect across the Y axis, the Y value remains the same and the x value becomes opposite.
Answer: (5,-3)
Answer:
C= 45 + 19.95h
Step-by-step explanation:
45 for each home vist means one time payment
19.95 ever hour means you are charged 19.95 every hour
H= hour
