The answer is (5x - 4y)(2a + b)
10ax + 5bx - 8ay - 4by = 10ax + 5bx - (8ay + 4by) =<span>
= 5x * 2a + 5x * b - (2a * 4y + b * 4y) =
= 5x(2a + b) - 4y(2a + b) =
= (5x - 4y)(2a + b)</span>
B) (16 + 20)a - 18b
16a and 20a are both positive and 18b is the only negative it’s easier to add the positive with each other then the negative and a positive then add other positive
8 ft /4 ft of shadow=x / 2 ft of shadow
x=(8 ft * 2 ft of shadow) / 4 ft of shadow=4 ft
height of a lawn ornament=4 ft
Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Point Form:(97/17,−64/17)
Equation Form: x=97/17, y=−64/17
