Simplify. final answer should be written in standard form (a+b)(3a-b)(2a+7b)

algol13

we have

(a+b)(3a-b)(2a+7b)

step 1

Solve

apply distributive property

(a+b)(3a-b)=3a^2-ab-3ab-b^2=3a^2-4ab-b^2

step 2

Multiply (3a^2-4ab-b^2) by (2a+7b)

6a^3+21a^2b-8a^2b-28ab^2-2ab^2-7b^3=6a^3+13a^2b-30ab^2-7b^3

answer is

<h2>6a^3+13a^2b-30ab^2-7b^3</h2>

Part of the proceeds from a garage sale was $470 worth of $10 and $20 bills. If there were 14 more $10 bills than $20 bills, fin

Brums [2.3K]

There are 25 $10 bills and 11 $20 bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of proceeds from garage = $470

Let,

x be the number of $10 bills

y be the number of $20 bills.

According to given situation;

10x+20y=470 Eqn 1

x = y+14 Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$10(y+14)+20y=470\\10y+140+20y=470\\30y=470-140\\30y=330$

Dividing both sides by 30

$\frac{30y}{30}=\frac{330}{30}\\y=11$

Putting y=11 in Eqn 2

$x=11+14\\x=25$

There are 25 $10 bills and 11 $20 bills.
