Answer:

a = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3a – 8 = 5a + 12

3a – 8 + 8 = 5a + 12 + 8

3a = 5a + 20

3a - 5a = 5a + 20 - 5a

- 2a = 20

$\dfrac{-2a}{-2}=\dfrac{20}{-2}$

a = - 10

What is the product? (-2x- 9y2 )(-4x-3)

lara [203]

Answer:

$36xy^2 + 8x^2 + 27y^2 + 6x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the FOIL method of multiplying binomials.

First term in each binomial: $-2x * -4x = 8x^2$

Outside terms: $-2x * -3 = 6x$

Inside terms: $-9y^2 * -4x = 36xy^2$

Last term in each binomial: $-9y^2 * -3 = 27y^2$

Now, rearrange the terms correctly. $36xy^2 + 8x^2 + 27y^2 + 6x$

This is our final answer, since it can not be simplified any more.
