Answer:
x = 17.2
Step-by-step explanation:
since they are supplementary, when you add then together they equal 180
4x + 8 + 6x = 180
Combine like terms
10x + 8 = 180
subtract 8 from both sides
10x = 172
divide each side by 10
x = 17.2
hope this helps :)
-6x + 3 + x - 7...when ur adding expressions such as this, and there is a plus sign in between them, the parenthesis are not needed.
we now combine like terms...
-6x + x = -5x
3 - 7 = -4
and we are left with : -5x - 4 <==

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
when you raise an exponent to a power you multiply
Also since the terms inside the parenthesis are multiplied and not added, you don't have to worry about expanding it

Answer:
a = - 4, b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side, then compare the coefficients of like terms.
- 3(2x² + ax + b)
= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b, compare to - 6x² + 12x - 15
Compare coefficients of x- terms
- 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
a = - 4
Compare constant terms
- 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
b = 5
