Pavlova-9 [17]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

32 - 9 x (don't know what you want simplify or solve for x) x = 32/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

20 - 3 (3 x - 4)

-3 (3 x - 4) = 12 - 9 x:

12 - 9 x + 20

Grouping like terms, -9 x + 12 + 20 = (20 + 12) - 9 x:

(20 + 12) - 9 x

20 + 12 = 32:

Answer: 32 - 9 x

_________________________________

Solve for x:

20 - 3 (3 x - 4) = 0

-3 (3 x - 4) = 12 - 9 x:

12 - 9 x + 20 = 0

Grouping like terms, -9 x + 12 + 20 = (20 + 12) - 9 x:

(20 + 12) - 9 x = 0

20 + 12 = 32:

32 - 9 x = 0

Subtract 32 from both sides:

(32 - 32) - 9 x = -32

32 - 32 = 0:

-9 x = -32

Divide both sides of -9 x = -32 by -9:

(-9 x)/(-9) = (-32)/(-9)

(-9)/(-9) = 1:

x = (-32)/(-9)

Multiply numerator and denominator of (-32)/(-9) by -1:

Answer: x = 32/9

1. Express the product of 2x2 + 7x – 10 and x + 5 in standard form.
Vladimir79 [104]
Step 1: Start with the following:
(a + b + c)(d + e)

Step 2: Distribute (d + e) to each of the term in the first parenthesis
a(d + e) + b(d + e) + c(d + e)

Step 3: Distribute d and e to each term:
(ad + ae) + (bd + be) + (cd + ce)
or ad + ae + bd + be + cd + ce without the parentheses.

Step 4: Finally, simplify.

Please, help me. <br> What is it.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

7³

Step-by-step explanation:

when dividing exponents that have the same base, you leave the base as the original (so in this case 7) and subtract the exponents (in this case it would be 9-6). that will be your new base and exponent.
