Answer:

3.75 or 15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+5=35

Subtract 5 from the left side to cancel it out, do the same thing to 35.

8x=30

Divide 8x by 8 to get x alone, do the same thing to 30.

x=3.75, or once you simplify 30/8, you get 15/4.

(x+3)(3x² - 5x - 10) multiply polynomial

brilliants [131]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{3x^3+4x^2-25x-30}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{\text{SOLUTION:}}$

To isolate the term of x from one side of the equation, you must multiply by a polynomial.

$\underline{\text{GIVEN:}}$

$:\Longrightarrow: \sf{(x+3)(3x^2 - 5x - 10)}$

You have to solve with parentheses first.

$:\Longrightarrow \sf{x\cdot \:3x^2+x\left(-5x\right)+x\left(-10\right)+3\cdot \:3x^2+3\left(-5x\right)+3\left(-10\right)}$

Solve.

$\sf{x*3x=3x^3}$

x(-5x)=-5x²

$\sf{x(-10)=-10x}$

3*3x²=9x²

3(-5x)=-15x

3(-10)=-30

Then, rewrite the problem down.

$\sf{3x^3-5x^2-10x+9x^2-15x-30}$

Combine like terms.

$\Longrightarrow: \sf{3x^3-5x^2+9x^2-10x-15x-30}$

Add/subtract the numbers from left to right.

-5x²+9x²=4x²

$\Longrightarrow: \sf{3x^3+4x^2-10x-15x-30}$

Solve.

$\sf{-10x-15x=-25x}$

Then rewrite the problem.

$\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{3x^3+4x^2-25x-30}}$

Therefore, the correct answer is 3x³+4x²-25x-30.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
