Answer:

When solving a multi step equation, you use PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, add, subtract), and you also use PEMDAS when solving a multi step inequality. However, inequalities are tricky in the fact that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must flip the sign. And while normally there are 1 or 2 solutions to a multi step equation, in the form of x= #, you'll have the same thing, but with an inequality sign (or signs).

A two-step equation is an algebraic equation that takes you two steps to solve. You've solved the equation when you get the variable by itself, with no numbers in front of it, on one side of the equal sign.

Answer:

24/45 - 45/51

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent can be expressed as opposite/adjacent. So, create a right triangle with one leg = 24 and the other = 45. The hypotenuse is 51 by the Pythagorean theorem. Cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse, so it would be 45/51.

1. Using the exponent rule (a^b)·(a^c) = a^(b+c) ...

$\left(-2x^3y^4\right)\left(5x^9y^{-2}\right)=(-2)(5)\left(x^{(3+9)}y^{(4-2)}\right)\\\\=-10x^{12}y^{2}$

Simplify. Write in Scientific Notation

2. You know that 256 = 2.56·100 = 2.56·10². After that, we use the same rule for exponents as above.

$8 \left(32\times 10^{11}\right)=(8)(32)\times 10^{11}=256\times 10^{11}=2.56\times 10^{13}$

3. The distributive property is useful for this.

(3x – 1)(5x + 4) = (3x)(5x + 4) – 1(5x + 4)

... = 15x² +12x – 5x –4

... = 15x² +7x -4

4. Look for factors of 8·(-3) = -24 that add to give 2, the x-coefficient.

-24 = -1×24 = -2×12 = -3×8 = -4×6

The last pair of factors adds to give 2. Now we can write

... (8x -4)(8x +6)/8 . . . . . where each of the instances of 8 is an instance of the coefficient of x² in the original expression. Factoring 4 from the first factor and 2 from the second factor gives

... (2x -1)(4x +3) . . . . . the factorization you require
