<span>With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.</span>
Yea what the other guy said
Answer: put it in the calculator with the () and they will give it to you right like you need it
Step-by-step explanation: :)
Factor out a 6
6 / 6x^2 = x^2
6 / -12x = -2x
6 / -18 = -3
6(x^2 - 2x - 3)
Multiply the first term to the last
1 x -3 = -3
(a x b) = -3
(a + b) = -2 (middle term)
(1 x -3) = -3
(1 + -3) = -2
Plug them in by replacing -2x and simplify
6(x^2 - 1x - 3x - 3)
6((x^2 - 1x) - (3x - 3))
6(x(x - 1) - 3(x - 1))
6(x - 3)(x - 1)
Or in this case, 6(x - 1)(x - 3)
Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the angle across from 85° is 85° because of vertical angles. We also know that the 98° also has the same interior angle on the other parallel line because both lines are parallel. We subtract 96 from 180 to find the vertical angle for the right side of the triangle, which comes out to be 82°. Lastly, we solve x + 82 + 85 = 180 and we should get 13 as our answer.
