Answer:
That depends on which operations you want to do first. The order of operations affect to outcome of the equation.
In this case:
15 - (3 x 4) + 9 = 12
Think of it this way: Lets add numbers in pairs, starting at the very outer 2 numbers (19 and 77) then go in by one and add the second number and the second to last (20 and 76), then (21 and 75) and so on. The sum of all of these pairs are all the same: 96. How many 96s will we have? Well since we're coming from each end toward the middle adding pairs we will have half the distance between 19 and 77, that is (77-19)/2 = 29. So we can actually just take 96*29 = 2784. This is the sum of all numbers between 19 and 77
Answer:
2 people are are alive because all the single people(meaning they have no spouse) died do the married people are the only ones who survived.
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) Simplifying the equation would lead you to 15x^2-3x+9
b.) You know your answer is correct because you're adding the two polynomials together. 9x^2+6x^2 is 1tx^2. Now you have 2x-5x and since the negative is bigger, you get -3x. Then 5+4 is 9. You have no like terms therefore your answer is 15x^2-3x+9
