Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3)(x-1) - x(x+2)

Foil the first term

First x^2

outer -x

inner 3x

last -3

Add them together

x^2 -x+3x-3 = x^2 +2x-3

x^2 +2x-3  - x(x+2)

Distribute the second term

x^2 +2x-3 -x^2 -2x

Combine like terms

-3

Answer:

\boxed{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hey there!</em>

Well to simplify,

(x+3)(x-1) - x(x+2)

we need to do

(x+3)(x-1) first,

(x+3)(x-1)

x*x = x^2

-x + 3x = 2x

-1 * 3 = -3

\boxed{x^2 + 2x - 3}

Now we can do,

x(x+2)

x*x = x^2

x*2 = 2x

\boxed{x^2 + 2x}

So now we need to subtract the 2 products,

x^2 - x^2 = 0

2x - 2x = 0

The answer is,

\boxed{-3}

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

Answer:

780

Step-by-step explanation:

So when you're adding consecutive numbers like this. 1+2+3...+39. You add 39 and 1. This is 40. 2+38 is 40. This is a pattern. Now, we do 40 multiplied by 39 and this will give you the number 1620. After this you would have to divide this product by 2. The answer will soon be 780.

Y=9x+4 is translated 4 units , what would be the equation on a graph?
denis-greek [22]
I noticed that this equation is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). M =  the slope of the line, B = the y-intercept.

If the line is translated (fancy, fancy, talk for MOVED) up. The Y-intercept would change positive (because it is moved up) by four.

4 + 4 equals...well, 8.

Hope I could help you out! If my answer is incorrect, or I provided an answer you were not looking for, please let me know.
However, if my answer is explained well and correct, please consider marking my answer as Brainliest!  :)

Have a good one.

God bless!

podryga [215]
This is binomial probability with n=50 and p=0.62.

We want binom(50,0.62,35).

One way to calculate this is to use a calculator with statistical functions.

My TI-83 Plus turned out the result 0.061.
