Answer:

$(x-2)(3x+4)=3x^{2}-2x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of <em>distributive property</em> is used in the field of algebra. It is one of the properties of multiplication that is applied with respect to a sum or a subtraction. This property indicates that two or more terms present in a sum or subtraction multiplied by another quantity, is equal to the addition or subtraction of the multiplication of each of the terms of the addition or subtraction by the number.

In other words: a number multiplied by the sum of two addends is identical to the sum of the products of each of the addends by that number.

Solving:

$(x-2)(3x+4)=x(3x+4)-2(3x+4)\\(x-2)(3x+4)=3x^{2} +4x-6x-8\\(x-2)(3x+4)=3x^{2}-2x-8$

6) A standard deck has 52 cards, and contains 13 cards of each of the four suits: diamonds, spades, hearts, and clubs. What is t

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

$\dfrac{12}{51}\cong\dfrac{4}{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 52 cards in a deck and 13 cards of each suit.

The probability of picking a diamond in a complete deck of cards is:

$\dfrac {13}{52}$

Or the probability is 13 put of 52.

Since you took out 1 diamond card already there would be only 51 cards left and 12 diamond cards left. So you would have a probability of:

$\dfrac{12}{51}$

If we simplify it you will have a probability of:

$\dfrac{4}{17}$

There are 252 pieces of candy in a 14-ounce jar. How many pieces of candy are there per ounce in the jar?

djyliett [7]

"Per" essentially means "divided by." To find pieces per ounce, divide pieces by ounces.

(252 pieces)/(14 ounces) = (252/14) pieces/ounce = 18 pieces/ounce

Help, Find the domain of the function

adell [148]

Answer:

(-∞,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

This would form a roughly parabolic shape that extends infinitely along the x-axis. It would reach a height of ³√2 on the y-axis. Because it extends infinitely left and right, it would have an infinite domain. In interval notation, this would be (-∞,∞)
