(-7x² + 3) + (4x² + 2x - 1)
-7x² + 3 + 4x² + 2x - 1
(-7x² + 4x²) + (3 - 1) + 2x collect like terms
-3x² + 2x + 2
hope this helps, God bless!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The lengths can be found by considering their ratio:
short : long = 1 : 5
The sum of the ratio units is 1+5 = 6, and the sum of the lengths is 144 inches. That means each "ratio unit" stands for (144 in)/6 = 24 inches of length.
The lengths are ...
1 : 5 = 24 in : 120 in
The pieces are 24 inches and 120 inches in length.
__
Equivalently, you can let s represent the shorter length. Then 5s is the longer one, and their total is ...
s +5s = 144
s = 144/6 = 24
5s = 5(24) = 120
The lengths are 24 inches and 120 inches.
Answer:
<em>247 units² </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 15 × 23 - 7 × 14 = 345 - 98 = <em>247 units²</em>
