Answer:

Number of postcards bought by Yoshi = 4

Explanation:

Number of stamps bought by Cindy = 20

Number of stamps bought by Cindy = Five times of the number of postcards bought by Yoshi.

Number of stamps bought by Cindy = 5 x Number of postcards bought by Yoshi.

5 x Number of postcards bought by Yoshi = 20

Number of postcards bought by Yoshi = 20/5 = 4

Number of postcards bought by Yoshi = 4

A copy machine makes 44

andrew-mc [135]

44 per minute. 44 x 5 minutes = 220 copies. But you have have 30 seconds left, 30 is half a minute so you also split what the machine does in half which is 22. 220 +22= 242.
242 copies is my answer.

Joe is building a post for his mailbox. To find the correct dimensions, he needs to expand this expression: (x-3) (x-9) (x-4) Se

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$(x-3)(x-9)(x-4)=x^3-16x^2+75x-108$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression to expand is given as:

$(x-3)(x-9)(x-4)$

Let us expand the first two binomials of the given expression using FOIL method.

The FOIL method states that:

$(a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd$

$(x-3)(x-9)=(x\times x)+(x\times -9)+(-3\times x)+(-3\times -9)\\\\(x-3)(x-9)=x^2-9x-3x+27=x^2-12x+27$

Now, let us multiply the result with the remaining binomial. Multiplying each term of the trinomial with each term of the binomial, we get:

$(x^2-12x+27)(x-4)\\\\= (x^2\times x)+ (x^2\times -4)+(-12x\times x)+(-12x\times -4)+(27\times x)+(27\times -4)\\\\=x^3-4x^2-12x^2+48x+27x-108\\\\=x^3-16x^2+75x-108...........(\because-12x^2-4x^2=-16x^2,48x+27x=75x)$

Therefore, the equivalent expression after expanding is given as:

$(x-3)(x-9)(x-4)=x^3-16x^2+75x-108$
