A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
N= 13*c+8
n=15*c
15c=13c+8
15c-13c=8
2c=8
c=8:2
c=4 children
n= 15*4=60 notebooks
"commutative property" in addition and multiplication means that you can exchange the places of integers in addition and multiplication and still get the same answer.
For this question:
10 + 8 = 18 can be rewritten using commutative property as: 8 + 10 = 18
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
(3x² + 4x + 4)(2x - 4)
The easiest method is probably to use long multiplication.
3x² + 4x + 4
<u>2x - 4 </u>
6x³ + 8x² + 8x
<u> - 12x² - 16x - 16</u>
6x³ - 4x² - 8x -16
