This is valid through the law of syllogism. If you swap lines 1 and 2, then you'll have this argument:
If I step on a beehive, then I will get stung.
If I get stung by a bee, then it will hurt.
Therefore, if I step on a beehive, then it will hurt
------------------
So it's like connecting a chain together. Point A (stepping on the hive), leads to point B (getting stung), which leads to point C (getting hurt). We can take a shortcut to bypass point B to jump from A to C in one step. Check out the attached image for a visual of what I'm referring to.
The answer is 18.
Just replace the x with 2
Answer:
A.1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Pick two points on the line and determine their coordinates.
2 Determine the difference in y-coordinates of these two points (rise).
3 Determine the difference in x-coordinates for these two points (run).
4 Divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates (rise/run or slope).
Answer:
+ 3x³ - 16x² + 27x - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
x²(4x² - 5x + 6) + 2x(4x² - 5x + 6) - 3(4x² - 5x + 6)
Distribute all 3 parenthesis
= 4 - 5x³ + 6x² + 8x³ - 10x² + 12x - 12x² + 15x - 18
Collecting like terms
= 4 + 3x³ - 16x² + 27x - 18
