Do you know how many friends he has then you can answer the question
40xa^2 + 24 ax + 32 a =
all you have to do is factor out a 8a from each term
aka reverse distribution property
8a (5 a + 3x + 4)
1, when you factor you get 6x(x^2-1)+4(x^2-1)=
When you see this kind of question use « BODMAS »
1.Add the 2 digits which is 3+7=10
2.Add the digits inside which is 0.7+1.3=2
3.Add the inside and outside
3+7(0.7+1.3)
10(2)=20
Each X and Y in the equations don't have a number in front of them so they are all considered 1.
D = 1*(-1) - 1*(-1) = -1 -1 = -2
The answer is -2
