(-3x)²-(3x-2)²-6*(2x-1.5)

1 answer:

4 0

Without the instructions, I can only assume that you are to "expand the given expression."

Following order of operations rules requires that (3x-2)^2 and -6(2x-1.5) be evaluated first.

(3x-2)^2 = 9x^2 - 12x + 4 and -6(2x-1.5) = -12x + 9

Then we have 9x^2 - (9x^2 - 12x + 4) -12x + 9

the 9x^2 terms cancel, leaving us with 12x - 4 - 12x + 9 = 5 (answer)

3 − m = −2 (m + 6); m = −15 Yes or No

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

3 − m = −2 (m + 6); m = −15 Yes

5 (p + 3) = −35; p = −4 No

8q = 3 (10 + q); q = 6 Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

3 − m = −2 (m + 6)

3 - m = -2m - 12

m = -15

Answer is Yes

5 (p + 3) = −35

5p + 15 = -35

5p = - 50

p = -10

Answer is No

8q = 3 (10 + q)

8q = 30 + 3q

5q = 30

q = 6

Answer is Yes

Frank starts off with $ 120 to spend on his shirts and shoes. Frank buys 3 shirts for $15.50 each. Shoes cost $32.50 each per pa

evablogger [386]

Shirts: 3 x 15.50 = 46.50

120 - 46.50 = 73.50 left to spend on shoes

73.50/32.50(cost per pair) = 2.26....so he was able to purchase 2 pairs of shoes.
