Hi there!

Answer:

<u><em>x=403 and 403=x</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Because a student says the answer is 347 is not the right answer. The final answer should be x=403 and 403=x.

375=x-28

Switch sides.

x-28=375

add by 28 both sides of an equation.

x-28+28=375+28

simplify.

x=403 and 403=x

403-28=375

28+375=403

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=403

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation you have to clear X and to clear X you have to add 28 in both sides of the equation to eliminate the -28 from the side of the x:

375=x-28

375(+28)=x-28+(28)

375+28=x

x=403

The student instead of adding the 28 put them with negative sign making him withdraw from teh 375 instead of adding, that was his mistake.

Take 2y 2 - 3y - 5 from y 3 - 6y 2 + 5y. Select the correct answer.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

y^3-8y^2+8y+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Take one polynomial from the other means to perform the sub.traction of them. Recall that it is better to use grouping symbols when subtracting polynomials, so we get the signs right when combining like terms:

The indicated subtraction is: y^3-6y^2+5y - (2y^2-3y-5)

Make sure that before removing the grouping symbol (parenthesis) that is preceded by a negative sign, we change the signs of every term inside it. Then combine like terms to get the final answer:

y^3-6y^2+5y - (2y^2-3y-5)=\\=y^3-6y^2+5y-2y^2+3y+5=\\=y^3-6y^2-2y^2+5y+3y+5=\\=y^3-8y^2+8y+5

Which is the last option shown in the question
