Answer:

C −2a^3+9a^2+45a+6ab^2+18b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+3) ( −2a^2+15a+6b^2)

Distribute the a to the large term in parentheses and the 3 to the large term in parentheses

a ( −2a^2+15a+6b^2)+3 ( −2a^2+15a+6b^2)

−2a^3+15a^2+6ab^2 −6a^2+45a+18b^2

Combine like terms

−2a^3+15a^2−6a^2+6ab^2 +45a+18b^2

-2 a^3 + 9 a^2 + 6 a b^2 + 45 a + 18 b^2

Brandon is shopping at Old Navy during a sale. All shorts are $16 each and all t-shirts are $10 each.He has $100 to spend and wo

DaniilM [7]

Let
x = the number of shorts bought
y = the number of t-shirts bought

A pair of shorts costs $16 and a t-shirt costs $10. Brandom has $100 to spend.
Therefore
16x + 10y ≤ 100
This may be written as
y ≤ - 1.6x + 10 (1)

Brandon wants at least 2 pairs of shorts. Therefore
x ≥ 2 (2)

Graph the equations y = -1.6x + 10 and x = 2.
The shaded region satisfies both inequalities.

Answer:
Two possible solutions are
(a) 3 pairs of shorts and 4 t-shirts,
(b) 4 pairs of shorts and 2 t-shirts.
