Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a - b)(a + b) =a² - b²

(3x + 5)(3x -5) =(3x)² - 5² = 9x² - 25

(x +2)(x+2) = (x+ 2)² = x²+ 2*2*x+2² = x² + 4x + 4

(x+2)(3x -5 ) = x*3x - 5*x +2*3x +2*(-5)

                    = 3x² -5x +6x -10

                    = 3x² + x - 10

\frac{2*(3x+5)}{x+2}-\frac{5(x+2)}{3x-5}=3\\\\\frac{2*(3x+5)*(3x-5)}{(x+2)(3x-5)}-\frac{5*(x+2)(x+2)}{(3x-5)(x+2)}=3\\\\\frac{2*(9x^{2}-25)-5(x^{2}+4x+4)}{(3x-5)(x+2)}=3

\frac{18x^{2}-25-5x^{2}-20x-20}{3x^{2}+x-10}=3\\\\\frac{18x^{2}-5x^{2}-20x - 25-20}{3x^{2}+x-10}=3\\\\

13x² - 20x - 45 = 3*(3x² + x - 10)

13x² - 20x - 45 =9x² + 3x - 30

13x² - 9x² -20x - 3x - 45 + 30 = 0

4x² - 23x - 15 = 0

Korolek [52]

Answer:

720 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Can = 3 balls

Box = 4 cans = 4*3balls = 12 balls

Case = 6 boxes = 6* 12balls = 72 balls

10 cases = 10 *72balls = 720 balls

Ben bowled 139 and 184 in his first two games. What must he bowl in his third game to 170​?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

187

Step-by-step explanation:

We make an equation to find the average of all three games: (139+184+x)/3=170 . x is the value of the third game to get an outcome of at least 170, and when you solve the equation you get 187.

. Write the following expression in factored form using the greatest common factor.<br> 50a3 + 10a2
Tanya [424]

The factors of  50a³  are  1,  2,  5,  10,  25,  50,
   and their products with a, a² and a³ .

The factors of  10a²  are  1,  2,  5,  10,
    and their products with 'a' and a² .

Their common factors are  1, 2, 5, 10,
       and their products with 'a' and a².

Their greatest common factor is  10a² .

(Another way to spot it, easily, is to remember this helpful factoid:

                 If the smaller number is a factor of the larger number,
                 then the smaller number is their greatest common factor.

Using the greatest common factor, then . . .

           50a³ + 10a²  =     10a²(5a + 1) .
