(a).
The product of two binomials is sometimes called FOIL.
It stands for ...
the product of the First terms (3j x 3j)
plus
the product of the Outside terms (3j x 5)
plus
the product of the Inside terms (-5 x 3j)
plus
the product of the Last terms (-5 x 5)
FOIL works for multiplying ANY two binomials (quantities with 2 terms).
Here's another tool that you can use for this particular problem (a).
It'll also be helpful when you get to part-c .
Notice that the terms are the same in both quantities ... 3j and 5 .
The only difference is they're added in the first one, and subtracted
in the other one.
Whenever you have
(the sum of two things) x (the difference of the same things)
the product is going to be
(the first thing)² minus (the second thing)² .
So in (a), that'll be (3j)² - (5)² = 9j² - 25 .
You could find the product with FOIL, or with this easier tool.
______________________________
(b).
This is the square of a binomial ... multiplying it by itself. So it's
another product of 2 binomials, that both happen to be the same:
(4h + 5) x (4h + 5) .
You can do the product with FOIL, or use another little tool:
The square of a binomial (4h + 5)² is ...
the square of the first term (4h)²
plus
the square of the last term (5)²
plus
double the product of the terms 2 · (4h · 5)
________________________________
(c).
Use the tool I gave you in part-a . . . twice .
The product of the first 2 binomials is (g² - 4) .
The product of the last 2 binomials is also (g² - 4) .
Now you can multiply these with FOIL,
or use the squaring tool I gave you in part-b .
We can first turn the text into a proper formula:
x plus 10 plus 6 x plus 2 x
x+10+6x+2x
The like terms are the numbers with
We can then put the like terms together to continue the calculation:
x+6x+2x+10
=9x + 10
Therefore, the answer is 9x + 10.
Hope it helps!
Mixed number is a natural number plus a proper fraction
a mixed number, is normally more than 1
anyway
percent means parstt out of 100
0.55%=0.55/100=0.055/10=0.0055/1=0.0055
it is 55/10000 as a fraction or 0 and 55/10000 aas a mixed number
decimal it is 0.0055
The exact form is:
-37/10
The decimal for is:
-3.7
The mixed number for is:
-3 7/10
Problem 1
<h3>Answer: 2/5</h3>
--------------------------
Explanation:
There are 4 green blocks out of 4+6 = 10 total. We divide the number of green over the number total to get the answer. Reduce the fraction as much as possible. The fraction 4/10 reduces to 2/5 (we divide both parts by 2).
====================================================
Problem 2
<h3>Answer: 1/6</h3>
--------------------------
Explanation:
The probability the spinner lands on red is 2/6 = 1/3. This is because there are 2 spaces that are red out of 6 total. It helps to reduce as much as possible.
The probability the coin lands on heads is 1/2 because there's 1 side labeled heads out of 2 total.
Multiply the fractions: 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/6
This works because both events are independent.
