Answer:
a) 7x^2 + 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
(9x^2 + 8x) – (2x^2 + 3x)
Distribute the minus sign
(9x^2 + 8x) – 2x^2 - 3x
Line them up vertically
(9x^2 + 8x)
– 2x^2 - 3x
-------------------
7x^2 +5x
I would solve it for B, but that's just what I think. So you would do -12 time -2 which is 24, then subtract 24 from both sides so that you would get B=-31
Kevin is 6 and Daniel is 3 now (i.e., K is 3 years older than D)
2 years ago K was 4 and D was 1 (i.e., K was 4 times as old as D)
