Answer:

4a +b -5

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Let's simplify step-by-step.</h3>

3a + b + a −5

= 3a + b + a + −5

<h3>Combine Like Terms:</h3>

= <em>3a</em> + <u>b</u> + <em>a</em> + <u>−5</u>

= (<em>3a + a</em>) + <u>(b)</u> + <u>(−5)</u>

= <em>4a</em> + <u>b</u> + <u>−5</u>

The directions are with the question. Please answer numbers 6 through 10, please.
prisoha [69]

Answer:

6) 4 (tiny 5) in the upper corner

7) 9 (tiny 2) in the upper corner

8) 4 (tiny 2) in the upper corner

9) 3 (tiny4) in the upper corner

10) 5 (tiny 5) in the upper corner

Step-by-step explanation:

Once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy! Here are the steps for how I figured it out:

1) Figured out what number they are giving me. For the first one, I saw that they gave me the number 4. For the second one, they gave me the number 9 etc.

2) Next, I looked at each problem individually. For the first one, you know that they are giving you the number 4. You would then count the amount of numbers, in this case 4, that you see in the equation.

3) Now knowing the numbers of numbers in the equation, you'd write it in exponential notation. For the first one, they are giving you the number 4, however, they are giving it to you 5 times. Thus, by writing the number 5, smaller than the number 4, you are allowing you and your math teacher to know that you have to take the number 4 and multiply it by itself 5 times.

4) Try doing this for the others too. Trust me, once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple. Hope this helped!

Factor p^2-q^2-2p+2q
Grace [21]
Not sure of the answer but i know what factors
p ^2 - 2p

p (p-2)

-q^2 +2q

-q (q-2)

so maybe (p-q) (p-2) (q-2)
