Answer and step-by-step explanation:
Break the bracket out would be the first step to evaluate this expression:
3(x-1)
= 3x - 3
Hope this helped :3
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5/(10 - a - b)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
4 + 3 x - a x = 9 - 7 x + b x
Collect in terms of x:
x (3 - a) + 4 = 9 - 7 x + b x
Collect in terms of x:
x (3 - a) + 4 = x (b - 7) + 9
Subtract (b - 7) x + 4 from both sides:
x (10 - a - b) = 5
Divide both sides by 10 - a - b:
Answer: x = 5/(10 - a - b)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X = 4 ; x = 3 + i ; x = 3 - i
(If you get a zero that is adding or subtracting, you always need to write it twice but change the sign do they cancel out)
f(x) = (x-4)(x-3-i)(x-3+i)
Distributing the last two parenthesis first is always the best way to start off
(x-3-i)(x-3+i) has (x-3) in common so it can be separated to
(x-3)^2 + (-i)(+i)
(x^2 - 6x + 9) ; (-i)(+i) is always +1
(x^2 - 6x + 9) + 1
(x^2 - 6x + 10)
Now multiply this with (x-4)
x^3 - 6x^2 + 10x
- 4x^2 + 24x - 40
x^3 - 10x^2 + 34x - 40 = f(x)
