If you put brackets around (2+1), your method of working is: 
1) 15-4*(2+1)=3 
2) 15-4*3=3
3) 15-12=3
You don't need any more brackets, as the BIDMAS (brackets, Indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) rule does the rest of the job for you. 
The answer is therefore: 15-4*(2+1)=3

The equality used is Subtraction property of equality

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify which option best explains or justifies Step 1.

Step 1 is: -c = ax^2 + bx

The given equation is: 0 = ax^2 + bx + c

To get the equation for step 1 we need to subtract c on both sides of equation i.e using subtraction property of equality

0-c = ax^2 + bx + c-c

-c = ax^2 + bx

So, The equality used is Subtraction property of equality

Option A is correct.

What is the base if the height is 6ft and the area is 14 ft on a triangle ​
insens350 [35]

Answer:

b = 4.66666667

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for finding the area of a triangle is

0.5b x h = a

b = base

h = height

a = area

So I calculated 14 divided by 6

And got 2.3333333

And since that number is half of the base, I multiplied it by 2

2.333 x 2 ≈ 4.66666667

Simplify quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2
Novosadov [1.4K]

Simplifying quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2 we get x+4

Option d is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2.

Writing in mathematical form:

\frac{x^2+6x+8}{x+2}

Solving:

Factorizing the numerator:

\frac{x^2+6x+8}{x+2}\\=\frac{x^2+4x+2x+8}{x+2}\\=\frac{x(x+4)+2(x+4)}{x+2}\\=\frac{(x+2)(x+4)}{x+2}\\Cancelling\,\,x+2\,\,forom\,\,numerator\,\,and\,\,denominator:\\=x+4

So simplifying quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2 we get x+4

Option d is correct.
