The simplified expression is: -14s⁴-2s²+3s-3.
First group all the like terms together.
(-8s⁴)+(-6s⁴)=-14s
-2s
7s+(-4s)=3s
-3
Then put the expression back together, starting with the term that has the largest exponent, then working your way down. You would then get: -14s⁴-2s²+3s-3.
Answer:
A. 3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number equal x.
Set up the first half of the equation.
The sum of three times the number and 8 more than the number can be written as:
3x + (x+8)
Sum means that you add the components.
Set up the second half of the equation.
The difference between -22 and twice the number can be written as:
-22 - 2x
Difference means subtraction, and because -22 is written first, that is the number that you subtract <em>from</em>.
If you set the halves of the equation equal, you get:
3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x
Therefore, the answer is A.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
17-9=8
8*2=16
Because had 8 but bought 9 more to where he then had 17 but if you take 8 times 2 then your answer is 16 and that's how many comic books he began with.
