Answer:

Rewrite as

3x(x-y) -p[-(x-y)]

We factored out a minus from the second bracket. I chose the second bracket arbitrarily... You can chose the 1st bracket if you want.

Now when those two minus interact... They became Positive(From rules of sign Multiplication)

3x(x-y) + p(x-y)

Now factor out (x-y) from both

(x-y) [ 3x + p]

So that's our answer!!

(x-y)[ 3x + p ].

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation: so first you remove the ( ) because they’re useless in this then once you remove then Since two opposites add up to zero, remove them from the expression then you only get left with 9.

Use a measuring tape to find the circumference of five circular objects.Then measure distance across each item to find its diame

MAXImum [283]

Basically
Circumference = 2 * pie * radius
To get the radius u need to measure the circles distance. For example I measured a circular mirror and the distance was 10cm. This is the diameter. To get the radius I’ll divide by 2 because the radius is from the centre of the circle to the edge. So, 10 divided by 2 = 5cm. The radius is 5cm. Now,
Circumference = 2 * pie * r
r = 5. Pie = 3.14
Circumference = 2 * 3.14 * 5
= The answer
****pie is always 3.14
I hope you understood
