Answer:
Part A: 8b -12c -16
Part B: 4(2b - 3c -4)
Part C: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
5b + 3c - 20 + 3b - 15c + 4
= 8b -12c -16
Part B:
Factorising 8b -12c -16
= 4(2b - 3c -4)
Part C:
= 4[2(2)-3(-3)-4)]
= 4[4+9-4]
= 4[9]
= 36
Answer:
A) 8, 15, 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
Right triangle obey the Pythagorean theorem. Thus, we choose the two smaller numbers (being the cathetus) and if after applying the P. Theorem we get the biggest of each option (the hypotenuse) that means that those numbers could be the sides of a right triangle.
The Pythagorean theorem states that: 
Thus:

Option A:
→ 17 = 17 OK!
Option B:
→ 10 ≠ 12 NO
Option C:
[/tex] →
≠ 21 NO
Option D:
→
≠ 16 NO
Answer:
The index of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number. In this example: 82 = 8 × 8 = 64. The plural of index is indices. (Other names for index are exponent or power.)
