Answer:

a. =11+ 1

b. =4x+ (-7y) + (-5z) +6

c. (-3x) + (-8y) +(-4)+(-8/7z)

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 20 - 9 + 8 -7

=11+ 1  ( this is obtained by solving)

b. 4x - 7y - 5z + 6

=4x+ (-7y) + (-5z) +6

We multiply the negative sign with the positive sign to get a minus so the answer remains the same and the expression is written as an addition sum.

c. -3x - 8y - 4 - 8/7z

-[ 3x+8y+4+8/7z]

or

(-3x) + (-8y) +(-4) +(-8/7z)

The minus sign is taken as common leaving the expression with the plus only.

It can be written in the same manner as above, adding the negative terms so that the expression is written as a sum.

How do you factorize p2 + 2p - 3 =0
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

p2 + 2p + -3 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving

-3 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-3 + -1p)(1 + -1p) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-3 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

-3 + -1p = 0

Solving

-3 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + -1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + 3

-1p = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3

-1p = 3

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = -3

Simplifying

p = -3

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(1 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

1 + -1p = 0

Solving

1 + -1p = 0

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.

1 + -1 + -1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0

0 + -1p = 0 + -1

-1p = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1

-1p = -1

Divide each side by '-1'.

p = 1

Simplifying

p = 1

Solution

p = {-3, 1}

NEED HELP ASAP
joja [24]

Answer: 16517 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x is the number of years after 2000.

In 2005, the number of years x = 4

Because the equation was modelled for 4 year college courses

The best estimate for the average cost of tuition in 2005 will be

ŷ = 937.98(4) + 12,764.90 

Y = 3751.92 + 12764.9

Y = 16516.82 dollars

Y = 16517 dollars
