3x^2 - 2x - 8
a=3, b=-2, c=-8
</span>a*c = 3*(-8) = -24
-24=(-6)*4 and -6+4=-2, so m=-6 and n=4
replace bx with mx + nx and factor by grouping

Answer:
1 false
2 true
3 true
4 false
5 true
Step-by-step explanation:
f(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) and g(a) = (5 – a).
1 false f(a) is a second degree polynomial and g(a) is a first degree polynomial
When added together, they will be a second degree polynomial
2. true When we add and subtract polynomials, we still get a polynomial, so it is closed under addition and subtraction
3. true f(a) + g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) + (5 – a)
Combining like terms = a^2 +a -2
4. false f(a) - g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) - (5 – a)
Distributing the minus sign (2a - 7 + a^2) - 5 + a
Combining like terms a^2 +3a -12
5. true f(a)* g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) (5 – a).
Distribute
(2a - 7 + a^2) (5) – (2a - 7 + a^2) (a)
10a -35a +5a^2 -2a^2 -7a +a^3
Combining like term
-a^3 + 3 a^2 + 17 a - 35
Answer:
-31
Step-by-step explanation:
(2×x) - (2×5) = (3×x) + (3×7)
2x-10 = 3x+21
2x-3x = 21+10
-x = 31
therefore, x = -31
Answer:the volume of a prism is the area of the base times the height of the prism. The volume of the pyramid has the same base area and height as the prism, but with less volume than the prism. The volume of the pyramid is one third the volume of the prism.
