I believe your answer would be 14(6+3x) XD
Let's break this down:
The difference: Something's gotta be subtracted
Twice a number: So 2 times a number, or n
and 3: So we gotta subtract 2n and 3
is 11: The final answer is 11
So altogether is:
2n - 3 = 11
A trinomial is a polynomial with three terms. It can be determined if it is a difference of two squares when you factor it.
The resulting factor of a trinomial that is a difference of two squares is: a²<span> – b</span>²<span> = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b)</span>
You will notice that the middle term is missing. This means that the middle term zeroes out as a result of having the same number of different signs (+ and -)
<span>After 1 hour, the diving bell was -1/2 mile relative to sea level.
Since the rate of decent is constant, we can use two ratios to represent the depth at 2 different times. To make things easier to write, I'll use decimals to represent time and depth.
-.75 / 1.5 = x / 1
Now solve for x
-0.5 = x
So after 1 hour, the diving bell was -1/2 mile relative to sea level.</span>
