Answer:

I'm assuming the 2 after 9t and -2t means squared.

7t² + 12t + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the expression we should combine like terms. Like terms are terms with same variables and powers.

Let's start with 9t² and -2t² since they have the same variable and power of t². To combine them we should add them together which would be: 9t² + (-2t²) = 9t² - 2t² = 7t²

Next we can combine 7t and 5t since they have the same variable and power of t. 7t + 5t = 12t

4 doesn't have any like terms so we leave it as it is.

Lastly we add all of our terms: 7t² + 12t + 4

vichka [17]

Answer: x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter = 50 cm

=> 2 (2x+15)+ 2(3x+20) =50

=> 4x+30+6x+40=50

=> 10x= -20

=> x= -20/10

=> x = -2

Sphere A has a radius of 24 centimeters, and sphere B has a diameter of 42 centimeters. The radius of sphere A is multiplied by

sashaice [31]

Ok, so we know that the radius of Sphere A is 24 cm, and we know that the diameter of Sphere B is 42 cm. To find the radius of Sphere B, all we need to do is divide the diameter by two. The radius of Sphere B is 21 cm. 24 times what factor is 21? Well, $24* \frac{21}{24}$ is equal to 21. All we need to do now is simplify it. Divide the numerator and denominator by 3, and we get $\frac{7}{8}$
