That’s not the full question but if it was it would be greater bc 10 - 10=0 but 10-10+15 would equal 15 instead of 10
Answer:
P = 6x-2
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter, we add the sides
P = 4x-8 + 3-2x + 5x+3
Combine like terms
P = 4x-3x+5x -8+3+3
= 6x -2
Now we know the perimeter
82 = 6x-2
Add 2 to each side
82+2 = 6x-2+2
84 = 6x
Divide each side by 6
84/6 = 6x/6
14=x
Again here we're using like terms
a) -2x² + 12x² = 10x² (they have the same term that's why I grouped them together)
-4x + 2x = -2x
13 - 25 = -12
So the final answer is 10x² - 2x -12
b) 7x² - (-7x²) = 7x² + 7x² or 14x²
4x - (-3x) = 4x + 3x or 7x
-26 - 15 = -41
The final answer to this one is 14x² + 7x - 41
The answer to the expression is 42
