(2-a)^2 + 3(2-a)
A^2 -2a + 4 + 6 -3a
A^2 -5a +10
Answer: d
explanation: baseball cards already take up half so it cant be a or c because those are more than half and if you add all of the numbers up you would get 40. 15 out if 40 is 3/8 and baseball cards take up 4/8 and football cards take up 1/8 so your answer would be d.
Answer:
The total the salesperson makes is $64.80.
Explanation:
Since nine percent of $720 is $64.80, that is what the salesperson gets per week if they sell $720 worth of jewelry per week. The amount the store gets is $655.20. Thank you for reading, and please mark Brainliest if you got it right!
To factor using the reverse of the distributive property, find what common factor the numbers have and what common factor the variables have.
10.
-8x - 16
8 is a factor of both -8 and 16.
The first term has x, but the second term does not, so there is no common variable. The only common factor is 8, or -8.
Factor out a -8:
-8x - 16 = -8(x + 2)
To see if the factorization is correct, multiply the answer using the distributive property. If you get the original expression, then the factorization is correct.
11.
w^2 - 4w
The first term only has a factor of 1. The second term has a 4. There is no common factor between 1 and 4 except for 1, so there is no number you can factor out. The first term has w^2. The second term has w. Both terms have a common factor of w. We can factor out w from both terms.
w^2 - 4w = w(w - 4)
12.
4s + 10rs
4 and 10 have a common factor of 2.
s and rs have a common factor of s.
2 times s is 2s, so the common factor is 2s.
We now factor out 2s
4s + 10rs = 2s(2 + 5r)
