When you see an equation with parenthesis around it, you can use this:
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
Otherwise known as PEMDAS.
We can see that in the equation, there are parenthesis, so we can open those. We open parenthesis by taking the number right next to the parenthesis (or outside the parenthesis) and we multiply that number by everything inside. So this is what it would look like:
-2x^2 - 10x + 8
See how the signs changed? This rule only applies when you multiply something, but here is how I think of it:
+ and + always equals +.
- and - always equals +.
- and + always equals -.
+ and - always equals -.
So that's it! Just to be clear, the answer is:
-2x^2 - 10x + 8
Hope I helped, sorry if I'm wrong!

X-9=12
x-9+9=12+9
You need to add 9 to each side of the equation.
x=21
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To write the expression as a single logarithm, or condense it, use the properties of logarithms.
1) The power property of logarithms states that
. In other words, the exponent within a logarithm can be brought out in front so it's multiplied by the logarithm. This means that the number in front of the logarithm can also be brought inside the logarithm as an exponent.
So, in this case, we can move the 3 and the 4 inside the logarithms as exponents. Apply this property as seen below:

2) The product property of logarithms states that
. In other words, the logarithm of a product is equal to the sum of the logarithms of its factors. So, in this case, write the expression as a single logarithm by taking the log (keep the same base) of the product of
and
. Apply the property as seen below and find the final answer.

So, the answer is
