When you see an equation with parenthesis around it, you can use this:
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
Otherwise known as PEMDAS.
We can see that in the equation, there are parenthesis, so we can open those. We open parenthesis by taking the number right next to the parenthesis (or outside the parenthesis) and we multiply that number by everything inside. So this is what it would look like:
-2x^2 - 10x + 8
See how the signs changed? This rule only applies when you multiply something, but here is how I think of it:
+ and + always equals +.
- and - always equals +.
- and + always equals -.
+ and - always equals -.
So that's it! Just to be clear, the answer is:
-2x^2 - 10x + 8

Find the number that both can be divided by i.e. the common denominator of 56/8 is 8 because 56 is divisible by 8 and 8 is also divisible by 8.
so by finding the common denominator and dividing the fraction, the equation would look like this: 7/1
The answer for this question when grouping:
(x+2)(3x^2+1)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal line, y=2, is solid and shaded above, so it represents

The slanted line, y=x is dashed and shaded below, so it represents y<x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Letters are variables and those variable can store a number
Ex: x=5 y=2
evaluate : 3x+2y
we know that x is 5, so we know that 3x would be 15
we know that y is 2, so we know that 2x would be 4
then it says to add 3x and 2y, we would add 15 and 4 to get 19
(This is a very simple example, when you get older, the expression would be much more confusing.
