-2.1 because each dash represents 0.1
So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)
you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2
here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)
now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8
to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8
The above is the answer :)
Answer:
y = 2x^2 + 16x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 4)^2 - 21
2(x + 4)(x + 4) - 21
2(x^2 + 8x + 16) - 21
2x^2 + 16x + 32 - 21
2x^2 + 16x + 11
