Answer:
Could you please show me the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming this is x^2 + 3x - 4 and x(x^2 + 3x - 2)
1.) First distribute x(x^2 + 3x - 2) to get x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x.
2.) Because you are subtracting all the terms from x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x, it's the same thing as distributing -1 to x^2 + 3x - 4 and then adding it to x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x.
3.) -1(x^2 + 3x - 4) = -x^2 - 3x + 4
4.) Add (x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x) + (-x^2 - 3x + 4)
5.) x^3 + 2x^2 - 5x + 4 is your final answer.
8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44
mutiply the bracket by -4
(-4)(5) = -20
(-4)(-x)= 4x
8x-20+4x= -44
8x+4x-20= -44 ( combine like terms )
12x-20= -44
move -20 to the other side
sign changes from -20 to +20
12x-20+20= -44+20
12x= -44+20
12x= -24
divide both sides by 12
12x/12= -24/12
Answer: x= -2
