Simplify (5x^2 -3x+3) - (x^2+2x-1).
Natali [406]
Eliminate parenthesis by using the distribution property

= 5x² -3x +3 - x² - 2x +1

Group similar terms

= (5-1)*x² + (-3 -2)*x + (3+1)

Then sum everything:

= 4x² -5x +4

Help me with these 3 questions please. aH-
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

1) 2/7; 43; 3/7

2) C

3) 30; 30; 10; is not; 10; is not

Step-by-step explanation:

1) y + 4/7 = 6/7

y = 6/7 - 4/7

y = 2/7

17 + b = 60

b = 60 - 17

b = 43

6/7 = m + 3/7

m = 6/7 - 3/7

m = 3/7

2) 11.5 - x = 5.25

x = 11.5 - 5.25

x = 6.25

3) he can substitute 30 for t.

He can then multiply ⅓ by 30 to get a product of 10 (⅓ × 30 = 10).

Since 15 is not equal to 10, Harry's solution is not correct
