Show all steps to find the product of -3x^3 + 2x - 4 and x^3 + x - 2.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

-3x^6 -x^4 +2x^3 -8x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property 4 times.

(-3x^3 + 2x - 4)×(x^3 + x - 2)

= -3x^3(x^3 +x -2) +2x(x^3 +x -2) -4(x^3 +x -2) . . . . once

= -3x^6 -3x^4 +6x^3 +2x^4 +2x^2 -4x -4x^3 -4x +8 . . . . 3 more times

= -3x^6 +x^4(-3+2) +x^3(6 -4) +2x^2 +x(-4 -4) +8 . . . . group like terms

= -3x^6 -x^4 +2x^3 -8x +8

Cory, Josh and Dan went shopping for Halloween treats. Cory bought 3 chocolate pumpkins, 4 masks and 8 candy witches. He spent $

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The cost of chocolate pumpkins is $1.89, masks cost $5.75 and candy witches cost $1.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of chocolate pumpkins, y the cost of masks and z the cost of candy witches.

Cory shopping can be represented as:

3x + 4y + 8z = 41.63 (1)

Josh shopping can be represented as:

6x + 2y + 14z = 45.52 (2)

Dan shopping can be represented as:

8x + 3y + 25z = 72.87 (3)

The equations in matrix form is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&4&8\\6&2&14\\8&3&25\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}41.63\\45.52\\72.87\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&4&8\\6&2&14\\8&3&25\end{array}\right] ^{-1}\left[\begin{array}{c}41.63\\45.52\\72.87\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}1.89\\5.75\\1.62\end{array}\right]$

The cost of chocolate pumpkins is $1.89, masks cost $5.75 and candy witches cost $1.62
