The expression A² – (B + C) in its simplest form is 8x² – 25x + 7

<h3>What is the polynomial?</h3>

A polynomial function is an expression constructed with one or more terms of variables with constant exponents.

Data obtained from the question

A = 3x – 4, B = x + 7, C = x² + 2, A² – (B + C) =?

The simplest form of the polynomial is given by;

(3x – 4)² – (x + 7 + x² + 2)

9x² – 12x – 12x + 16 – (x + x² + 9)

9x² – 24x + 16 – x – x² – 9

9x² – x² – 24x – x + 16 – 9

8x² – 25x + 7

Hence, the simplest form of the polynomial is A² – (B + C) = 8x² – 25x + 7.

Deon bought a desktop computer and a laptop computer. Before finance charges, the laptop cost $250 less than the desktop. He pai

zysi [14]

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = cost of desktop computer; then x - 250 = cost of laptop computer

converting % to decimals, 9% = 0.09 and 6% = 0.06

Then, 0.09x + (x - 250)0.06 = $300

0.09x + 0.06x - 15 = $300

0.15x = $315

x = $2100

then x - 250 = $1850

Proof: $2100•0.09 + 1850•0.06 = $189 + $111 = $300
