So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)

you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2

here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)

now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8

to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8

The above is the answer :)

In a race, a bicyclist travels 3/4 of a mile in 1/4 hour. Determine the unit rate for the speed in miles per hour.

5/2 miles per hour

(3/4÷1/4)=3 miles per hour☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

41/4 miles per hour

4 miles per hour

Anyone have the answer for this

sergiy2304 [10]

$\huge\bold{Given:}$

Length of the base = 16 km.

Length of the hypotenuse = 34 km. $\huge\bold{To\:find:}$

✎ The length of the missing leg '' $a$ ".

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\orange{Solution}}{\orange{:}}}}}$

The length of the missing leg "a" is $\boxed{30\:km}$ .

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\orange{:}}}}}$

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have

$({perpendicular})^{2} + ({base})^{2} = ({hypotenuse})^{2} \\ ⇢ {a}^{2} + ({16 \: km})^{2} = ({34 \: km})^{2} \\ ⇢ {a}^{2} + 256 \: {km}^{2} = 1156 \: {km}^{2} \\ ⇢ {a}^{2} = 1156 \: {km}^{2} - 256 \: {km}^{2} \\ ⇢ {a}^{2} = 900 \: {km}^{2} \\ ⇢a \: = \sqrt{900 \: {km}^{2} } \\ ⇢a = \sqrt{30 \times 30 \: {km}^{2} } \\ ⇢a = 30 \: km$

$\sf\blue{Therefore,\:the\:length\:of\:the\:missing\:leg\:"a"\:is\:30\:km.}$

$\huge\bold{To\:verify :}$

$( {30 \: km})^{2} + ({16 \: km})^{2} =( {34 \: km})^{2} \\ ⇝900 \: {km}^{2} + 256 \: {km}^{2} = 1156 \: {km}^{2} \\⇝1156 \: {km}^{2} = 1156 \: {km}^{2} \\ ⇝L.H.S.=R. H. S$

Hence verified. ✔
