Answer:

FIRST EXPRESSION:

-  If b=-3, the value of 4b(b+1) is  24

-  If b=-2, the value of 4b(b+1) is  8

- If b=10, the value of 4b(b+1) is  440

 SECOND EXPRESSION:

-  If b=-3, the value of (2b+7)(2b-8)) is  -14

-  If b=-2, the value of (2b+7)(2b-8)) is  -36

- If b=10, the value of (2b+7)(2b-8)) is  324

Yes, for any value of "b" the value of the first expression is greater than the value of the second expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values of "b" into each expression and evaluate.

- For the first expression 4b(b+1), you get:

If b=-3 → 4(-3)(-3+1)=24

If b=-2 → 4(-2)(-2+1)=8

 If b=10 → 4(10)(10+1)=440

 - For the second expression (2b+7)(2b-8)), you get:

If b=-3 → (2(-3)+7)(2(-3)-8)=-14

If b=-2 → (2(-2)+7)(2(-2)-8)=-36

 If b=10 → (2(10)+7)(2(10)-8)=324

You can observe that for any value of "b" the value of the first expression is greater than the value of the second expression.

In a chest there are some gold coins. Captain takes half the coins. Sally takes a quarter of the coins. There are 3 coins left.
amid [387]

Answer:

<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

x = Number of gold coins in a chest

1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain

1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally

3 = Number of gold coins left

2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?

Let's write the following equation to solve for x:

1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x

2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)

4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)

x = 12

<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
