Drew has 56 Red Marbles, 56 Green Marbles, Drew has about 60 Blue Marbles. First i added 6 to Red since Red Has 6 More Marbles Than Blue, Then i added Subtracted 4 from green, which resulted in 46 Green Marbles. Finally i added 4 and 6 to get 60 Blue Marbles. I am not sure if i am correct, but i gave it a shot! ^-^
N = ((n-1) + 4) + 4, to my understanding.
although your answers seem right written in the columns, but your method of applying numbers to equation seems incorrect in 'expand' column. for example, answer for 3 should be something like this...
3 21 17+4
4 25 21+4
hope it helps.
Five hundred six thousand seven hundred and nine.
Explanation:
It helps to understand the process of multiplying the binomials. Consider the simple case ...
(x +a)(x +b)
The product is ...
(x +a)(x +b) = x² +(a+b)x + ab
If the <em>constant</em> term (ab) is <em>negative</em>, the signs of (a) and (b) are <em>different</em>.
If the constant term (ab) is <em>positive</em>, the signs of (a) and (b) will both match the sign of the coefficient of the linear term (a+b).
___
Of course, the sum (a+b) will have the sign of the (a) or (b) value with the largest magnitude, so when the signs of (a) and (b) are different, the factor with the largest magnitude will have the sign of (a+b), the x-coefficient.
<u>Example</u>:
x² -x -6
-6 tells you the factors will have different signs. -x tells you the one with the largest magnitude will be negative.
-6 = -6×1 = -3×2 = ... (other factor pairs have a negative factor with a smaller magnitude)
The sums of these factor pairs are -5 and -1. We want the factor pair that has a sum of -1, the coefficient of x in the trinomial.
x² -x -6 = (x -3)(x +2)
Answer:
24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = (sx2) + (sx2)
= (6x2) + (6x2)
= 12 + 12
= 24 cm
