Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving an inequality is similar to solving an equation. To solve for r, isolate it. Whatever you do to one side, do to the other. Remember that a negative and a negative equal a positive, thus one side of the inequality becomes r + 5. Then, subtract both sides by -5 to find the answer.
Problem 13
If we want to multiply (x^3-3x^2+2x) with (x^3-2x^2+x), then we can set up a diagram shown below. The terms are along the outside. The stuff inside is the result of multiplying each pair of outer terms.
This is known as the box method to keep track of all the terms multiplied.
Once the table is filled out, we add up each term inside the boxes. Combine like terms if possible. Notice that I color-coded the like terms (eg: the x^3 terms are in green boxes).
The final answer is x^6 - 5x^5 + 9x^4 - 7x^3 + 2x^2
