Answer:
(4x+5)(-3x-1) = -12x²-19x-5
Option A:
(-16x² + 10x - 3) + (4x² - 29x - 2) = -12x²-19x-5
Option A is correct.
Option B:
3(x - 5) - 2(6x² + 9x + 5) = -12x²-15x-25
Option B is wrong.
Option C:
2(x - 1) - 3(4x² + 7x + 1) = -12x²-19x-5
Option C is correct.
Option D:
(2x² - 11x - 9) - (14x² + 8x - 4) = -12x²-19x-5
Option D is correct.
First find the slope of the line = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) where the 2 points are (x1, y1 and (x2, t2).
Then substitute the values of the slope (m) and one of the points into the point-slope formula
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Pattern P:
40, 38, 36, 34, 32, 30, …
Pattern Q:
40, 36, 32, 28, 24, 20, …
(absolute) Differences in corresponding terms:
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, …
and these differences agree with the last statement.
