Brady can draw 2 rectangular boxes, both the same size and shape, break the top one up into 4 parts and color in 3 of the 4 boxes, this represents the fraction 3/4. Break the second box up into 8 parts and color in 7 of them. You will see that 7/8 is more than 3/4.

2x+9=3x+1 what does x equal

eimsori [14]

Answer:

8 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+9=3x+1

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x+9=3x-2x+1

9 = x+1

Subtract 1 from each side

9-1 = x+1-1

Use FOIL to explain how to find the product of (a + b)(a − b). Then describe a shortcut that you could use to get this product w

andriy [413]

Greetings!

FOIL stands for:

Front
Outside
Inside
Last

This tells which terms to multiply when using the Distributive Property.
(NOTE: Only applicable with 2-term Polynomials)

For Example:
$(a+b)(a-b)$

Multiply the Fronts of both Equations:
$(a*a)$

Multiply the Outsides of both Equations:
$(a*a)+(a*-b)$

Multiply the Insides of both Equations:
$(a*a)+(a*-b)+(b*a)$

Multiply the Lasts of both Equations:
$(a*a)+(a*-b)+(b*a)+(b*-b)$

Simplify.
$=a^2-ab+ba-b^2$

$=a^2-b^2$

Alternative Method (My Prefered Method)
$(a+b)(a-b)=a(a+b)-b(a+b)$

Use Regular Distributive Property.
$a(a+b)-b(a+b)$

$a*a+a*b-b*a+-b*b$

Simplify.
$a^2+ab-ba+-b^2$

$a^2-b^2$

Hope this helps.
