I'm assuming you want to simplify the expression since it's not equal to anything.. you can't solve for "a" unless it's equal to something.
factor
8a³ - 2a²+ 12a - 3
2a²(4a - 1) + 3(4a -1)
(4a - 1) is a like term that can be combined further.
(2a² + 3)(4a - 1)
function is: f(x)=(x+10)^2
6^2 is 36. / 3 makes 12. 12+6 is 18. final answer, most likely 18.
Answer:
<em>150 miles</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the scale on the map using the conversion factor
1 inch = 50 miles
We are to find the equivalent miles between the cities in miles if the distace is 3inches
3inches = x
Divide both expressions
1/3 = 50/x
Cross multiply
x = 3 * 50
x = 150
<em>Hence the actual distance between these two cities in miles is 150 miles </em>
y = 7 which you subtract from 2x which means 2 times x so you use all of those as the value of 2 to see what the answer would be after you multiply it by 2
