First you have to factor (aka, multiply) your binomial (which is what you have written) usually it helps to organize your thinking, and help tell what you need to multiply, to use the binomial chicken(or crab claw, what ever you want to call it) which basically you draw two arches, one arch connecting the 3 and 4, and then the other the 3 and 9i. on the opposite side (depending on wheater you connected then from the top or bottom) you connect (with an arch) the 6i and the four, and then the 6i to the 9i.
so now you multiply each piece you've connected:
3 x 4= 12
3 x 9i= 27i
6i x 4= 24i
6i x 9i= 54i^2
after you've done this you can move on to putting it into standard form, which just means you put things in descending order, depending on how many exponents the x (or in this case i) has.
your largest exponent is 54i^2, so that's first in out equation, next 27i, and 24i (you can combine these because they are like term) which equals 51i, after that you just add the 12 on the end, so the final equation looks like this:
54i^2+51i+12
Here are some things you should know when solving algebraic equations.
If you add an expression to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation will have the same solution set as the original equation. In other words, they will be equivalent. This is true for all operations. As long both sides are treated the same, the equation will stay balanced.
You will also need to know how to combine like terms. But what are like terms to begin with? Like terms are defined as two terms having the same variable(s) (or lack thereof) and are raised to the same power. In mathematics, something raised to the first power stays the same. So, 5x and 10x are like terms because they both have the same variable and are raised to the first power. You don’t see the exponents because it doesn’t change the value of the terms.
To combine like terms, simplify add the coefficients and keep the common variable(s) and exponent.
The distributive property is another important rule you will need to understand.
The distributive property is used mostly for simplifying parentheses in expressions/equations.
For example, how would you get rid of the parentheses here?
6(x + 1)
If there wasn’t an unknown in between the parentheses, you could just add then multiply. That is what the distributive property solves. The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, now we can simplify our expression.
6(x + 1) = 6x + 6
Now let's solve your equation.
9v = 8 + v
8v = 8 <-- Subtract v from each side
v = 1 <-- Divide both sides by 8
So, v is equal to 1.
150g/12cakes
150/12 = 12.5
12.5g/cake
12.5x30 = 375
Therefore, you need 375g for 30 cakes.
Answer:
x = 17, MN = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants from an external point to a circle, then
The product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant.
(5)
7(7 + x) = 8(8 + 13) = 8 × 21 = 168 ( divide both sides by 7 )
7 + x = 24 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x = 17
(6)
9(9 + 2x - 7) = 10(10 + 8)
9(2x + 2) = 10 × 18 = 180 ( divide both sides by 9 )
2x + 2 = 20 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 9
Then
MN = 2x - 7 = 2(9) - 7 = 18 - 7 = 11
24÷3=8
There will be eight players on each team.
