Answer:

x² - 7x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember to follow FOIL.

First, multiply the first. (x)(x) = x²

Next, multiply the second. (x)(2) = 2x

Then, multiply the third. (-9)(x) = -9x

Finally, multiply the last. (-9)(2) = -18

Combine like terms: x² + 2x - 9x - 18

x² - 7x - 18

x² - 7x - 18 is your answer.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{-7x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use FOIL:

(a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

$(x-9)(x+2)=(x)(x)+(x)(2)+(-9)(x)+(-9)(2)=x^2+2x-9x-18$

combine like terms

$=x^2+(2x-9x)-18=x^2-7x-18$

Trees are planted at intervals of 5 m along side of a 140 m straight path. The first tree is planted at the start of the path an

Luden [163]

<h3>Solution :</h3>

Distance between first tree and last tree is 140m .

And distance between each tree (d) = 5 m

let's solve for number of trees (n) :

$\hookrightarrow \: (n - 1)d = 140$

$\hookrightarrow \: (n - 1)5 = 140$

$\hookrightarrow \: n - 1 = \dfrac{140}{5}$

$\hookrightarrow \: n = 28 + 1$

$\hookrightarrow \: n = 29$

hence, total number of trees = 29.

How many complex roots does the equation below have?

Maslowich

Answer:

The number of complex roots is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Descartes's rule of signs tells you that the number of positive real roots is 0. The number of negative real roots will be at most 2. The minimum value of the left side will be between x=0 and x=-1, but will never be negative. Thus all six roots are complex.

_____

The magnitude of x^3 will exceed the magnitude of x^6 only for values of x between -1 and 1. Since the magnitude of either of these terms will not be more than 1 in that range, the left-side expression must be positive everywhere.
