What is the first step in simplifying the expression 11x-2-3(1-7x)^2+(x+1)?

Answer:

PEMDAS is a great way to figure this out!

P - Parenthesies

E - Exponents

M - Multiplcation

D - Division

A - Addition

S - Subtraction

Follow this order and you should be good to go! Here's how I would follow this in this equation.

11x-2-3(1-7x)^2+(x+1)

First, parentheses

The 3 directly next to the parenthesies shows that everything inside of the () needs to be multiplied by 3.

-3*1  and -3*-7x (don't forget the negative)

This gives us 11x-2+(-3+21x)^2+(x+1)

Now distribute the exponents to everything inside of the parentheses.

11x-2+-3^2+21x^2+(x+1)

now solve the numbers with exponents without a variable.

3^2 = 3*3 = 9

combine any numbers without a variable outside of parentheses

11x-2+9+21x^2+(x+1)

11x+7+21x^2+(x+1)

From here, what I would do is divide the whole equation by 2

5.5x+3.5+21x+(.5x+.5)

now combine x values outside of parentheses

3.5+26.5x+(.5x+.5)

I believe this would be the simplest form, but please do correct me if I'm wrong or made any errors

Solve the system <br> 2x+y=-3 <br> -2y=6+4x
ANEK [815]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Write out the 2 equations:

2x + y = -3

-2y = 6+4x

-You then pick a variable that you want to solve for. I chose to solve for y because it would be a bit easier.

-2y = 6 + 4x

-Divide both sides by -2 to isolate the variable

(-2y) / -2 = (6 + 4x) / -2

-it comes out to y = -3 -2x

-Now that you have the y you can plug in the value into the second equation.

2x + y = -3   --->   2x + (-3 -2x) = -3

This can be simplified to:

2x - 3 - 2x = -3

The 2x's cancel out because there is a +2x and a -2x. You are left with a

-3 = -3. If you add 3 to both sides of the equation you end up with 0 = 0, which can be simplified to just 0.
