Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identity

(a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca)

Subtract 2(ab + bc + ca) from both sides, then

a² + b² + c² = (a + b + c)² - 2(ab + bc + ca) = 7² - 2(20) = 49 - 40 = 9

How do you solve ? <br>2(x−(3+2x)+9)=3x−8
PIT_PIT [208]

Hey there!!

Given equation :

... 2 ( x - ( 3 + 2x ) + 9 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... 2 ( x - 3 - 2x + 9 ) = 3x - 8

... 2 ( -x + 6 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... -2x + 12 = 3x - 8

Subtracting 12 on both sides.

... -2x = 3x - 8 - 12

... -2x = 3x - 20

Subtracting 3x on both sides.

... -2x - 3x = -20

... -5x = -20

Dividing by -5 on both sides.

... x = -20 / -5

... x = 4

<em>Hence, the answer is 4. </em>

Hope my answer helps!

What are the slope and y-intercept -3x-8y=10
choli [55]
The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
