A^2 +a-6. You use the method of foiling where you multiply the first two terms, the the outside terms, the inside terms, then the last terms. You would do a•a, then a•-2 the a•3 then 3•-2. You would get a^2 -2a +3a -6. Then combine like terms to get your answer.
1. Let's call the number of carter school: "x" and "y" the number of alternative school. Then, you have that:
- T<span>he number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the number of alternative schools.
</span> - T<span>here are 48 charter schools in the country.
2. So, you have:
x=2y-4 (i)
x=48 (ii)
3. Then, when you substitute x=48 into the equation (i), you obtain:
</span>
x=2y-4
<span> 48=2y-4
4. Now, you must clear "y, as below:
48+4=2y
2y=52
y=52/2
y=26
</span><span>
How many alternative schools are in the county?
</span><span>
The answer is: There are 26 alternative schools.</span>
2 times 8 x 12
192
2 times 5 x 8
80
2 times 12 x 5
60
192+80+60=332 ft^2
One it is expanded i believe you should get 6
