Eliminate parenthesis by using the distribution property

= 5x² -3x +3 - x² - 2x +1

Group similar terms

= (5-1)*x² + (-3 -2)*x + (3+1)

Then sum everything:

= 4x² -5x +4

I’m not sure where to begin

(a)

we are given

the price of apple suddenly up by $0.75

Let's assume original price be 'p'

we are given

Sam bought 3 pounds of apple at the new price total is $5.88

so, new price = old price +0.75

price of 3 apples $=3(p+0.75)$

we are given that price is 5.88

so, we get equation as

$5.88=3(p+0.75)$ .......Answer

(b)

Since, original price is p

so, we have to solve for p

$5.88=3p+2.25$

$5.88-2.25=3p+2.25-2.25$

$3.63=3p$

$p=1.21$

so, original price is $1.21 per pound........Answer
