A counter-example could be
There are more than 3 marbles in the bag, and the other ones are red.
Hope this helps!
(sorry if it's too late and you've already figured it out, but here you go anyway)
The easiest way to do this is to start by FOILing then add.
So just start with (x-1)(x-1)
(x-1)(x-1)
Front: (x*x) = x^2
Outer: (x*-1) = -x
inner: (-1*x) = -x
Last: (-1*-1) = 1
Added: x^2 -2x +1
Now take that answer and do the same thing with (x-1). It's basically the same thing, just with an added thing you need to multiply.
(x-1)(x^2-2x+1)
(x*x^2) = x^3
(x*2x) = 2x^2
(x*1) = x
(-1*x^2) = -x^2
(-1*-2x) = 2x
(-1*1) = -1
Now add everything together:
x^3+2x^2+x-x^2+2x-1
The answer is:
x^3+x^2+3x-1
I am confused on what the question is.
Answer:
Students deliver catalogues and leaflets to houses.
One day, they have to deliver 480 catalogues and 1520 leaflets.
Each student can deliver either 15 catalogues or 80 leaflets in 1 hour. Each student can only work for 8 hours. All students hired are paid £50.40 per day, even if they don't work a full day.
If the minimum number of students are hired, how much will the wage bill be?
