Joseph has started completing the square on the equation where

given equation is

3x^2-7x+12=0

move constant term to other side.

3x^2-7x=-12

divide both sides by coefficient of x^2 that is by 3

x^2-\frac{7}{3}x=-\frac{12}{3}

x^2-\frac{7}{3}x=-4

This is the same step upto which Joseph has worked. But he got different equation

x^2-x=-4

Hence his work is not accurate.

3(x+2)-2(×+1) i need help with this problem
zhuklara [117]

Question:

What is 3(x + 2) - 2(x + 1)?

Steps:

When you solve this type of equation always use the distributive property formula to solve this equation!

Formula: a(b + c) = ab + ac

So, what is 3(x + 2) ?

  • 3x + 6

Also, what is -2(x + 1)?

  • -2x - 2

Then, put it back into the equation for you to solve this problem.

So, this would be the new equation:

3x + 6 - 2x - 2

Then, what you want to do is put variables next to each other and the numbers next to each other so it will be easier to simplify:

3x - 2x + 6 - 2

Then, simplify:

x + 4 is the answer!

Since 3x - 2x = x and 6 - 2 = 4


Hope that helped!!
