Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply
Answer:
A. 4x²+20x+25
Step-by-step explanation:
Because of PEMDAS, you calculate the value inside of the parenthesis first, so you expand [2x+1-(4x+6)]:
2x+1-4x-6 = -2x-5.
Then apply the exponent:
(-2x-5)² = (-2x-5)(-2x-5) = 4x²+10x+10x+25 = 4x²+20x+25
x/.75=x-56/0.4
0.4x=.75x-42
-0.35x=-42
x=120
I set up a proportion in which x=the tank when it is 3/4 full. When the tank is 3/4 full, solving the proportion tells us the x=120 litres. 120/3=40, and 120+40 is 160, showing that a tank completely full would indeed hold 160 litres.
Hope this helps!
