Answer:
She rewrote the problem without parentheses: x3+ 2x2 - x + x3 – 2x2 +6
Step-by-step explanation:
It looks like she didn't fully distribute the -
(x3 + 2x2 - x)-(-x3 + 2x2 + 6) :Original
x3+ 2x2 - x + x3 – 2x2 +6 :Changed
~
(x3 + 2x2 - x)-(-x3 + 2x2 + 6)
x3 + 2x2 - x + x3 - 2x2 - 6
x3 + x3 + 2x2 - 2x2 -x - 6
2x3-x-6
I hope this helps ^-^
If s represents the number of songs Kim downloads, her expenses for a month must satisfy the inequality
5.00 + 0.58·s ≤ 13.00
To solve this, subtract 5.00 to get the s-term by itself, then divide by the coefficient of s.
0.58·s ≤ 8.00
s ≤ 8.00/0.58 ≈ 13.79
The number of songs must be an integer, so we conclude Kim can download 13 songs, but not 14 songs.
Kim can download 13 songs without exceeding her budget.
There are 5 letters in the word "prime"
Imagine we had 5 slots to fill. They are empty initially.
Slot 1 has 5 choices to pick from
Once we pick a letter, we have 4 choices left over for slot 2
Slot 3 will have 3 choices
Slot 4 will have 2 choices
Slot 5 will have 1 choice
We have this countdown: 5,4,3,2,1
which multiplies out to 5*4*3*2*1 = 120
There are 120 unique ways to arrange the letters. Order matters. Because order matters, this is a permutation.
Just subtract 45 - 28 = 17 lollipops
Hope this helps!!!
Answer:
a = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for a:
2 (a + 5) - 1 = 3
Hint: | Distribute 2 over a + 5.
2 (a + 5) = 2 a + 10:
(2 a + 10) - 1 = 3
Hint: | Group like terms in 2 a - 1 + 10.
Grouping like terms, 2 a - 1 + 10 = 2 a + (10 - 1):
(2 a + (10 - 1)) = 3
Hint: | Evaluate 10 - 1.
10 - 1 = 9:
2 a + 9 = 3
Hint: | Isolate terms with a to the left hand side.
Subtract 9 from both sides:
2 a + (9 - 9) = 3 - 9
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
9 - 9 = 0:
2 a = 3 - 9
Hint: | Evaluate 3 - 9.
3 - 9 = -6:
2 a = -6
Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Divide both sides of 2 a = -6 by 2:
(2 a)/2 = (-6)/2
Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.
2/2 = 1:
a = (-6)/2
Hint: | Reduce (-6)/2 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of -6 and 2.
The gcd of -6 and 2 is 2, so (-6)/2 = (2 (-3))/(2×1) = 2/2×-3 = -3:
Answer: a = -3
