8x - 10 = 86 {combined like terms}

8x = 96 {added 10 to both sides}

x = 12 {divided both sides by 8}

3x - 5 = 31 {substituted 12, in for x, into 3x - 5}

width = 12 in.

length = 31 in.

(x^2–x–4)multiplied by(x–5)

Sergio [31]

$(x-5)(x^2-x-4) =x^3-6x^2+x+20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomials are:

$x^2-x-4\\and\\x-5$

Both polynomials have to be multiplied. We will use distributive property for the said purpose

So,

$(x-5)(x^2-x-4)\\=x(x^2-x-4)-5(x^2-x-4)\\=x^3-x^2-4x-5x^2+5x+20$

Combining alike terms

$=x^3-x^2-5x^2-4x+5x+20\\=x^3-6x^2+x+20$

Hence,

$(x-5)(x^2-x-4) =x^3-6x^2+x+20$
