First you simply have to substitute 2 in replace of all the a's, and -2 in replace of all of the b's
4((2)2+2(-2))
Then you want to follow the order of operations, PEMDAS (Parantheses-Exponent-Multiplication-Division-Addition-Subtraction), and multiply within the parantheses.
4(4+(-4))
Next you will add within the parantheses (So add the 4 and -4 together)
4(0)
Lastly multiply
0
Your answer is 0
Hope this helps!
Answer: 207
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- 4/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Just take 4 and 15 make that a fraction make the fraction a negative not the 15 because they will be the same thing no matter where you place it
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
105/3 = 35
35/5 = 7
7/7 = 1
429/3 = 143
143/11 = 13
13/13 = 1
105 = 3 * 5 * 7
429 = 3 * 11 * 13
Not co-prime
For the other parts of the problem, do the same I did above. Find the prime factorizations of both numbers, and see if they have any prime factors in common.
