Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring a polynomial involves writing it as a product of two or more polynomials. It reverses the process of polynomial multiplication. We have seen several examples of factoring already. However, for this article, you should be especially familiar with taking common factors using the distributive property.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Harpreet = x + 3

Sukhpreet = x

Komalpreet = 2*(x + 3)

Average Age = 15

Equation

[(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15 Multiply both sides by 3

Solution

3 [(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15 * 3 Combine

[(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] = 45 Remove the brackets

x + 3 + x + 2x + 6 = 45 Combine like terms

4x + 9 = 45 Subtract 9 from both sides

4x + 9 - 9 = 45 - 9 Combine

4x = 36 Divide by 4

4x/4 = 36/4

x = 9

Answer

Harpreet is x+ 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

Help ..<br><br><br><br> 3(x+2)=5x+1-2x+5

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step

3(x+2)=5x+1−2x+5

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation

3(x+2)=5x+1−2x+5

(3)(x)+(3)(2)=5x+1+−2x+5(Distribute)

3x+6=5x+1+−2x+5

3x+6=(5x+−2x)+(1+5)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+6=3x+6

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides

3x+6−3x=3x+6−3x

6=6

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides

6−6=6−6

Answer:

$2.44745763 \times {10}^{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$R = \frac{ {x}^{2} }{y} \\ \\ = \frac{ {(3.8 \times {10}^{5}) }^{2} }{5.9 \times {10}^{4} } \\ \\ = \frac{14.44 \times {10}^{10} }{5.9 \times {10}^{4} } \\ \\ = 2.44745763 \times {10}^{10 - 4} \\ = 2.44745763 \times {10}^{6}$
