The first step you would take is to combine all like terms in the parentheses.
5a - 4a = a
Then you would multiply 2 by a, which would equal 2a.
Finally, combine all like terms (all terms with a), to get 8a. (2a + 6a = 8a)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2/5(6 - x)²
f(6) = 2/5[6 - (6)]²
f(6) = 2/5(0)²
f(6) = 0
Answer: 26 and 46, perhaps
Step-by-step explanation: The question does not state if point b is between a and c. Yes, it stands to reason that b is between a and c, but this is math. Since the question asks for TWO possible answers, it leads me to believe that b could also be prior to point a. Then we have two possible scenarios:
The logical one: A - - - B - - - C BC = (36 - 10) = 26
and this: B - - - A - - - C BC = (36 + 10) = 46
