Answer:

Aaron's bowling score is 30

David's bowling score is 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable representing Aaron's score is = a

The variable representing David's bowling score = d

The sum of their scores is 84.

= a + d = 84...... Equation 1

David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score.

d = 2a - 6

Substituting 2a - 6 for d in Equation 1

a + 2a - 6 = 84

3a - 6 = 84

3a = 84 + 6

3a = 90

a = 90/3

a = 30

Hence, Aaron's bowling score is 30

d = 2a - 6

d = 2(30) - 6

d = 60 - 6

d = 54

David's bowling score is 54

Write a polynomial that has a GCF of 7m and another with a GCF of 2ab squared.
SVEN [57.7K]

The polynomial that has a GCF of 7m is 14mn - 21m + 49m²n + 7mn²

The polynomial that has a GCF of 2ab² is 6a²b² - 8ab³ + 4a³b² + 2a³b³

<h3>Writing Polynomials </h3>

From the question, we are to write a polynomial that has a GCF of 7m

That is,

We are to write a polynomial that has a greatest common factor of 7m

<em>Writing the polynomial</em>

14mn - 21m + 49m²n + 7mn²

The  polynomial above has a greatest common factor of 7m. That is, 7m is the greatest factor that can divide each of the terms

We are to write a polynomial with a GCF of 2ab²

<em />

<em>Writing the polynomial</em>

6a²b² - 8ab³ + 4a³b² + 2a³b³

The polynomial above has a greatest common factor of 2ab². That is, 2ab² is the greatest factor that can divide each of the terms

Hence,

The polynomial that has a GCF of 7m is 14mn - 21m + 49m²n + 7mn²

The polynomial that has a GCF of 2ab² is 6a²b² - 8ab³ + 4a³b² + 2a³b³

Linh buys two T-shirts for $12 each, a pair of shoes for $28, and a pair of jeans for $45. She has a coupon for 30 percent off h
Darina [25.2K]
12x2= $24
24+28+45= $97

So $97 is 100%

So 100%-30% =70% (30% off)
(note: 70% = 70/100 = 0.7)

97 x 0.7 = $67.90
