If you would like to write x^4y - 4x^2y - 5y in a completely factored form, you can do this using the following steps:
x^4y - 4x^2y - 5y = y * (x^4 - 4x^2 - 5) = y * (x^2 + 1) * (x^2 - 5)
The correct result would be <span>y * (x^2 + 1) * (x^2 - 5).</span>
For b on the first paper you will start with the distribution property and multiply both x and 2 by 3 because they are in the ()
now you have 3x+ 6=x-18
from here you can subtract x from both sides
2x+6=-18
next subtract 6 from both sides
2x=-24
divide both sides by 2...
x=-12
hope this helped
Answer:
n = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2/3)n + 7 = 15
(-2/3)n+7-7 = 15-7 Subtract by 7 on both sides
(-2/3)n = 8 Multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction, which is
(-2/3)n*(-3/2) = 8(-3/2) This makes it so you get n *1 and isolates n.
n = -24/2 = -12
