Answer:

1) Multiply and expand the brackets:

12x + 6 + 2x - 2

2) Combine like terms (combine terms that have an x together, and those that don't together.)

14x + 4

If the question wanted you to simplify the expression, then <u>14x + 4</u> is your answer. However, to solve for x, you could equate the expression to 0, but I'm not too sure of this part.

14x + 4 = 0

14x = - 4

x = - 4/14

x = - 2/7

14x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(4x+2) + 2(x-1)

Distribute by multiplying into the bracket

=12x + 6 + 2x - 2

Group like terms by adding and subtracting

= 14x + 4

Sqrt -13  = sqrt13 i
sqrt  -26  =  sqrt2 * sqrt13i 

sqrt-13 * sqrt -26  = sqrt2 * 13*  i^2  = -13 sqrt2 (because i^2 = -1)

answer is -13 sqrt2

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same rate, how many gallon
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.

Let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour= 60 minutes.

1/2 hour= 30 minutes.

So 2 hours= 120 minutes.

Let us find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes by dividing 3/4 by 30.

\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{30}

\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{3}{4*30}

\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{1}{40}

Now let us multiply 1/40 by 120 to find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 120 minutes(2 hours).

\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=120*\frac{1}{40}

\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=3

Therefore, Jen picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.

Which shows the expression factored correctly? 16x^2-25
REY [17]
Lets take a look at the options first.
option 1 and option 4 are not possible as (8x) (8x) would give us 64x^2, which is not what we want.

we’re left with option 2 & 3. when expanded, option 2 will look like :
16x^2 - 40x - 10x + 25
= 16x^2 - 50x + 25

however, we do not want the 50x. so the answer is option 3, (4x-5) (4x+5)

if you don’t want to find the answer using expanding, there is also another method of expanding.

(a+b)^2 = a^2 - b^2

in this case, 16x^2 will be a^2 and 25 will be b^2. not sure whether you’ve learn this but yea.
