Answer:
2(2x + 5)(2x - 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2(2x + 5)(2x - 5)
= (4x + 10)(2x - 5)
= 8x² - 20x + 20x - 50
= 8x² - 50
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
3x3x3=27
27-6=21
Answer:
-7/x
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you combine the terms together to get -7x^-1. you cant have negative exponents in the numerator so you move the x^-1 to the denominator. once it move its becomes positive then.
It is 1

or as an improper fraction it would be
An= mth term.
an=a₁+(n-1)*d
a₁₂=41
a₁₅=140
a₁₂=41
41=a₁+(12-1)*d
41=a₁+11d
a₁+11d=41 (1)
a₁₅=140
140=a₁+(15-1)*d
140=a₁+14d
a₁+14d=140 (2)
With the equiations (1) and (2) build a system of equations
a₁+11d=41
a₁+14d=140
we solve it.
-(a₁+11d=41)
a₁+14d=140
--------------------
3d=99 ⇒d=99/3=33
a₁+11d=41
a₁+(11*33)=41
a₁+363=41
a₁=41-363=-322
an=a₁+(n-1)*d
an=-322+(n-1)*33
an=-322+33n-33
an=-355+33n
an=-355+33n
To check:
a₁₂=-355+33*12=-355+396=41
a₁₅=-355+33*15=-355+495=140.
