Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
38 minus 15
38 - 15
15 less than 38
15 < 38
Answer:
-51
Step-by-step explanation:
Additive identity because that is the property when you add something to 0 and get the same thing
= 2a - 1
2(
) = 2(2a - 1) <em>multiplied both sides by 2 </em>
ab = 4a - 2 <em>distributed the 2 on the right side</em>
ab - 4a = -2 <em>subtracted 4a from both sides</em>
a(b - 4) = -2 factored out "a" from the left side
a =
<em>divided (b - 4) on both sides</em>
Answer: a =
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for that is

If we subtract over the 70, we have a quadratic that we can factor to solve for the values of x that will make that equation true.

Now we need the factors of 70 that will either add or subtract to give us the linear term of 3. The factors of 70 that will work are 10 and 7. 10 times 7 is 70, and 10 - 7 = 3:
and now we will factor by grouping:
and factor out what's common:

The factor (x + 10) is common, so we will now factor that out:

By the Zero Product Property, either x + 10 = 0 or x - 7 = 0, so x = -10 or 7
Those are the 2 numbers that will work.
simplifies to
100 - 30 which does in fact equal 70. OR
which simplifies to
49 + 21 which also equals 70.
So you're done!
