Let's see what the options look like when we multiply the expressions in brackets:
(first, i multiply both parts of the second bracked by the first part of the first bracket, and then the same with the second part of the first bracket:
<span>(1) (3x - 3)(x - 2))
3x2 +6x -3x +6// this is not correct
(2) (3x + 3)(x - 2) </span>
3x2-6x+3x-6//this is not correct
(3)
3(x + 1)(x - 2)
3(x2-2x+x-2)//simplifying:
3(x2-x-2)//multiplying:
3x2-3x-6)
- so this is not correct either
(4) 3(x - 1)(x - 2)
3(x2-2x - x + 2)
3(x2-3x +2)
3x2-9x +6 - well, here is our winner!
11. brother = ???
???- 12 = 14
14+12=26
brother is 26.
12. 21.35 - 8.95 = 12.4
cost of colored pencils = $12.40
13. 37- 8 = 29
14. $95 - $73 = $22
Answer:
5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert both fractions into improper fractions:
- To convert these fractions into an improper fraction you need to multiple the denominator with the mixed numeral/whole number. Then add that amount to the numerator. Do this for both fractions. This is what it should look like.
38/6 - 23/6.
The you subtract it
- 38/6 - 23/6 = 15/6
15/6 is your answer
If you want to simplify it the fraction it will be :
- 5/2
