Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
<u>Option A</u>
⇒ (x - 4)(3x + 2)
⇒ (x × 3x) + (2 × x) + (-4 × 3x) + (-4 × 2)
⇒ (3x²) + (2x) + (-12x) + (-8)
⇒ 3x² + 2x - 12x - 8
⇒ 3x² - 10x - 8
3x² - 10x - 8 = 3x² - 10x - 8 (Yes!)
<u>Option B</u>
⇒ (3x - 4)(x - 2)
⇒ (3x × x) + (3x × -2) + (-4 × x) + (-4 × -2)
⇒ (3x²) + (-6x) + (-4x) + (8)
⇒ 3x² - 6x - 4x + (8)
⇒ 3x² - 10x + 8
3x² - 10x - 8 = 3x² - 10x + 8 (No!)
<u>Option C</u>
⇒ (3x - 4)(x + 2)
⇒ (3x × x) + (3x × 2) + (-4 × x) + (-4 × 2)
⇒ (3x²) + (6x) + (-4x) + (-8)
⇒ 3x² + 6x - 4x - 8
⇒ 3x² + 2x - 8
3x² - 10x - 8 = 3x² + 2x - 8 (No!)
<u>Option D</u>
⇒ (3x - 2)(x - 4)
⇒ (3x × x) + (3x × -4) + (-2 × x) + (-2 × -4)
⇒ (3x²) + (-12x) + (-2x) + (8)
⇒ 3x² - 12x - 2x + 8
⇒ 3x² - 14x + 8
3x² - 10x - 8 = 3x² - 14x + 8 (No!)
Since the expression of option A has the same value as the given expression, option A is correct.
I pray to hod for yourgood day
Im gonna assume you mean 6 - (1/3)x = -1. Your notation is not super clear. If so, solution is as follows:
6 - (1/3)x = -1 [subtract 6 from both sides]
-(1/3)x = -7 [multiply both sides by -3]
x = 21
All you need to do is divide 0.6 into both sides.
10.3/0.6= 17.166666666667 ( you could round up to 17.2)
I hope this helps!
