Express as a trinomial (2x+8)(x-3)

Luden [163]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(2x+8)(x-3)=2x^2+2x-24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use FOIL:}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\(2x+8)(x-3)=(2x)(x)+(2x)(-3)+(8)(x)+(8)(-3)\\\\=2x^2-6x+8x-24\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=2x^2+(-6x+8x)-24\\\\=2x^2+2x-24$

What % of 40 is 15? Please put how u do it

andriy [413]

Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

so x% of 40 is 15

the equation for that is

x/100 * 40 = 15

40x/100 = 15

multiply 100 on both sides

40x = 1500

divide 40 on both sides

37.5

37.5% of 40 is 15

Use substitution to solve the following system of linear equations and fill in the following blanks:

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$x=-4$

$y=3$

$z=-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$x+y+z=-6$

$x-6y-7z=-29$

$-7y-5z=4$

Solve for $x$ in the 1st equation:

$x+y+z=-6$

$x+y=-z-6$

$x=-y-z-6$

Substitute the value of $x$ into the 2nd equation and solve for $z$ :

$x-6y-7z=-29$

$(-y-z-6)-6y-7=-29$

$-7y-z-13=-29$

$-7y-z=-16$

$-z=-16+7y$

$z=16-7y$

Substitute the value of $z$ into the 3rd equation and solve for $y$ :

$-7y-5z=4$

$-7y-5(16-7y)=4$

$-7y-80+35y=4$

$28y-80=4$

$28y=84$

$y=3$

Plug $y=3$ into the solved expression for $z$ and evaluate to solve for $z$ :

$z=16-7(3)$

$z=16-21$

$z=-5$

Plug $z=-5$ into the solved expression for $x$ and evaluate to solve for $x$ :

$x=-(3)-(-5)-6$

$x=-3+5-6$

$x=2-6$

$x=-4$

Therefore:

$x=-4$

$y=3$

$z=-5$
