First we need to combine like terms:
-18 + 15x = 12x - 18 + 3x
-18 + 15x = 9x - 18
-18 = 9x - 18 - 15x
-18 = -6x - 18
0 = -6x (the 18's cancel)
0 / -6 = x
0 = x
1 sq yrd = 9 sq. ft
so 30 sq. yards times 9 = 270 square feet
-"270 square feet"-
Answer:
6. (a-4)(a+9)
7. (3p+4)(p-2)
8. Will explain below.
9. (5b+4)(5b-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
HELLOOO IM BACK
6. -4*9 = -36 (the variable), 9-4 = 5 (a) , so a^2 +5a - 36 is fulfilled.
7. 4*-2 = -8, 4-2 = 2, so 3p^2 - 2p - 8 is fulfilled.
9. 25b^2 = (5b)^2
16 = 4^2
Using the difference of squares formula, a^2-b^2= (a+b)(a-b)
Answer:
x=-34
Step-by-step explanation:
x-44=-78
Add 44 to each side
x-44+44 = -78+44
x = -34
