You can just 1) multiply the binomial by itself, or you can use 2) the square of a binomial pattern. I'll show it to you both ways.
1) Multiply the binomial by itself.
(3x - 2)^2 = (3x - 2)(3x - 2) =
Multiply every term of the first binomial by every term of the second binomial, then collect like terms. (This is often called using FOIL.)
= 9x^2 - 6x - 6x + 4
= 9x^2 - 12x + 4
2) Use the square of a binomial pattern
The square of a binomial is
(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab - b^2
a^2 is the square of the first term.
b^2 is the square of the second term.
-2ab is the product of the two terms and 2.
You have
(3x - 2)^2,
where the first term is 3x, and the second term is -2
square the first term: 9x^2
square the last term: 4
the product of the terms and 2 is: -12x
Put it all together, and you get
9x^2 - 12x + 4
just like we got above with the other method.
4x+2=-2
4x=-2-2
4x=-4
x=-4/4
x=-1
3600 boxes divided by 60 trucks = 60 boxes per truck.

x-3 and x+5 we can't do anything with so next
5(x-3)=5x-15
2(x+5)=2x+10
5x-15+2=5x-13
(2x+10-9)=2x+1
(5x-13)-3(2x+1)
-3(2x+1)=-6x-3
5x-13-6x-3=-x-16
4(-x-16)=-4x-64
the answer is -4x-64
