Answer: Yes they are equivalent</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:
Expand out the first expression to get
(a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3)
a(2a^2 + 3a + 3) - 3(2a^2 + 3a + 3)
2a^3 + 3a^2 + 3a - 6a^2 - 9a - 9
2a^3 + (3a^2-6a^2) + (3a-9a) - 9
2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9
Divide every term by 2 so we can pull out a 2 through the distributive property
2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9 = 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)
This shows that (a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3) is equivalent to 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)
Answer:
So AC = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC = LMN
That means AB = LM
BC = MN
AC = LN
We know AB = 41 MN = 38 and LN = 25
AB = LM = 41
BC = MN=38
AC = LN=25
So AC = 25
6 -they lost that many
they won this many 6 plus this many 6

The least number of chaperones they will need is 5 chaperones because the greatest amount of students in a group is 4, so less chaperones. If each group has one chaperone that is 5 people per group total. 25 divided by 5 is 5.
