Hey there!
When finding the difference of expressions like these, there's a few things you should keep in mind.
1. When finding the difference of two polynomials, multiply the polynomial that implied to be "negative" by –1 to expand the problem and make it easier to solve.
2. You combine terms based on their unknown terms, like x, y, x², ab, etc. You cannot combine the terms x and x², but you can combine the terms 6b and 8b by adding them.
3. You can rearrange your terms however you see fit. If a polynomial is implied as "positive", you can multiply that entire polynomial by +1 to get rid of the parentheses.
With all that in mind, you can go ahead and solve for your difference, like so:






will be your difference.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
To find out if they are parallel we need to see if the gradient is the same, to do this we need to get y in terms of x:
assuming the first equation is x+y+7=0
y=-x-7
and
y=x-3
The gradient is the coefficient of x (the number infront of x)
For equation 1 the gradient is -1, and for number 2 it is 1, therefore they are not parallel.
However to check if they are perpendicular we need to see if their gradients multiply to equal -1.
-1*1=-1 therefore they are perpendicular
So its a square with a side length of 3x so all sides are 3x so 3x x 3x is 9x 9x = 324 so 924/9 is your answer ;D
<span>Toni can carry five books in her backpack. You must start by subtracting the weight of the other required items. Toni's lunch which is one pound and gym clothes which are two pounds. This can be calculated by 18-1-2=15. Toni has 15 pounds left to carry books. She should divide this by the weight of each book, which is three pounds. 15/3=5. Therefore, Toni can carry five books.</span>
