Distributive Property: a ( b + c) = (a*b) + (a*c)
b) x(x + 9) = x*x + 9*x
= x² + 9x
c) x² - 18x
x² = x * x
18x = 18 *x
G C F = x
Greatest common factor in both the terms is 'x'.Take the common variable from both the terms.
x² - 18x = x*x - 18*x
= x (x - 18)
Standard form. Factored form
x² x*x
x² + 9x x(x +9)
x² - 18x x(x - 18)
-x² + 10x x(-x + 10) = x(10 -x)
-x² - 2.75x -x(x + 2.75)
Which question? There are 2 different questions here .
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the piecewise function:

And we want to find f(8).
Since our input value is 8, choose the equation that fits our input.
The first equation demand x to be less than 3. 8 is not less than 3, so we won't use that.
The second equation demand x to e greater than or equal to 3 and less than 8. 8 is <em>not</em> less than 8. So, we won't use that.
The third equation demands x to be greater than or equal to 8. 8 is greater than or equal to 8, so we'll use the third equation.
So:


There're nothing more to do, we're done :)
The answer is A.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid is the average of the parallel bases times the height.
A=h(a+b)/2 and since we have two identical trapezoids the total are will be
A=h(a+b) in this case
A=15(32+25)=855mm^2
