Simplifying
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.
3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b
Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0
3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b
3a + c = 26 + -2b
Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.
3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c
Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0
3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c
3a = 26 + -2b + -1c
Divide each side by '3'.
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
Simplifying
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
Answer:
It is <em>a</em> solution, one of an infinite number of solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can check to see if the given point is in the solution set:
4(-4) +5(4) = -16 +20 = 4 > -6 . . . . yes
-2(-4) +7(4) = 8 +28 = 36 > 20 . . . yes
The offered point satisfies both inequalities, so is in the solution set. It is not <em>the</em> solution, but is one of an infinite number of solutions.
Answer:
yes , the distance between the two points is 13 units
Combining the like terms, the simplified polynomials are given as follows:
a) 4x² - 14x + 17
b) -5x² - 20x + 8
<h3>How are polynomials simplified?</h3>
Polynomials are simplified combining the like terms, that is, adding these numbers with the same variable.
Item a:
4(x - 2)(x + 1) - 5(2x - 5)
Applying the distributive property:
4(x² - x - 2) - 10x + 25
4x² - 4x - 8 - 10x + 25
Combining the like terms:
4x² - 4x - 10x - 8 + 25
4x² - 14x + 17
Item b:
-5(x + 2)² + 28
-5(x² + 4x + 4) + 28
-5x² - 20x - 20 + 28
-5x² - 20x + 8
