If you want to multiply (2*x + 5) and (2*x - 5), you can do this using the following steps:
(2*x + 5) * (2*x - 5) = 4*x^2 - 10*x + 10*x - 25 = 4*x^2 - 25
The correct result is 4*x^2 - 25.
You can expect 76 students in 2018 because from 2014 to 2015 it went up 6, then 8, then 10 so it would increase 12 students from 2017 to 2018
For (A.) Get a common denominator, 40/12 - 9/12 = 31/12 or (2 and 7/12)
For (B.) Get a common denominator, 24/15 - 10/15 = 14/15 (Simplified)
For (C.) Get a common denominator, 51/30 - 25/30 = 26/30 or (13/15)
For (D.) Get a common denominator, 14/6 - 9/6 = 5/6 (Simplified)
Hope this helps!

This is the expression simplified:
When Serena is 10, her mom is 3*10=30. Her mom is 20 years older than Serena.
If her mom's age divided by half is equal to Serena's, then she will be twice as old as Serena.
20 + 20 = 40
20 * 2 = 40
Serena will be 20, her mom will be 40.
