Hi there!
a. 8x^2 - 1
(x^2 - 4x + 5) + (7x^2 + 4x - 6)
= x^2 + 7x^2 - 4x + 4x - 1
= 8x^2 - 1
b. 5x^2 + 7x - 7
(7x^2 + 4x - 6) - (2x^2 - 3x + 1)
= 7x^2 + 4x - 6 - 2x^2 + 3x - 1
= 7x^2 - 2x^2 + 4x + 3x - 6 - 1
= 5x^2 + 7x -7
Hope this helps!
Answer:
5x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Add like terms: (4x + x) + (-6 + 3) = 5x - 3
You can create a right angled triangle.
Find the hypotenuse.
The third point of the triangle is (1,0)
using pythagoras, the value of a is 2, b is 3. 2^2 +3^2 = 13.
Therefore the distance between the two points is
