Answer:

X<6

Step-by-step explanation:

x-8<-2

So first off, you want to get X by itself. To do that you have to do the opposite of what the number is. If the number is negative you add it. If the number is positive, you subtract it. What you do on one side, you do on both.

x-8<-2

+8 +8

X<-2+8

Next, You need to add alike terms.

X<6

(x+3)(3x² - 5x - 10) multiply polynomial

brilliants [131]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{3x^3+4x^2-25x-30}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{\text{SOLUTION:}}$

To isolate the term of x from one side of the equation, you must multiply by a polynomial.

$\underline{\text{GIVEN:}}$

$:\Longrightarrow: \sf{(x+3)(3x^2 - 5x - 10)}$

You have to solve with parentheses first.

$:\Longrightarrow \sf{x\cdot \:3x^2+x\left(-5x\right)+x\left(-10\right)+3\cdot \:3x^2+3\left(-5x\right)+3\left(-10\right)}$

Solve.

$\sf{x*3x=3x^3}$

x(-5x)=-5x²

$\sf{x(-10)=-10x}$

3*3x²=9x²

3(-5x)=-15x

3(-10)=-30

Then, rewrite the problem down.

$\sf{3x^3-5x^2-10x+9x^2-15x-30}$

Combine like terms.

$\Longrightarrow: \sf{3x^3-5x^2+9x^2-10x-15x-30}$

Add/subtract the numbers from left to right.

-5x²+9x²=4x²

$\Longrightarrow: \sf{3x^3+4x^2-10x-15x-30}$

Solve.

$\sf{-10x-15x=-25x}$

Then rewrite the problem.

$\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{3x^3+4x^2-25x-30}}$

Therefore, the correct answer is 3x³+4x²-25x-30.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
