Lois is correct. This is because multiplication is repeated addition. It means that when your addends are just the same number but added several times, the sum is just equivalent to the product of that number times the number of times it was added. For example, 4+4+4 = 4×3 = 12.
The answer is D
3*-42=-126
The factors of -126 that add to -11 are 7 and -18
replace -11h with 7h-18h
3h^2 + 7h - 18h - 42
Factor the first two terms and last two terms
h(3h+7) - 6(3h+7)
See how the two parentheses are the same?
THE ANSWER IS BELOW!!
(h-6)(3h+7)
the first parentheses has the terms that were outside, and the second has the original bracketed terms
This matches option D (it just multiplies the terms backwards, which gives the same result)
It will be .6 because u divide

so, let's first change the bounds from 1 to 9, so we'll be dropping the indices by 1, in order to do the variable "n".
however, let's use a variable hmmm say "k", where "k" is the value of "n" beginning at 1, thus
k = n - 1.
however, if k = n - 1, then
k + 1 = n. So let's use those fellows then,
Answer:
1st blank: 4
2nd blank: -8
y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2²=4
4(-2)=-8
1 x 4 = 4
4 + -8 = -4
-4 + 6 = 2
