The answer to your question should be 6.19
If you are talking about the binomial being expanded then it would be:
8x^3 + 12x^2y + 6xy^2 + y^3
The y in the second term is not part of the exponent
And since you are raising the binomial to the third, you would be using the third row of Pascal's triangle.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
im so bad at explaining things but i hope this helped
To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12
Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
