(4x2 + 2y)(3x+y^2)
= 12x^3 + 4x^2y^2 + 6xy + 2y^3
coefficient of xy is ----> 6
let's firstly, convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, and then subtract.
![\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{3}{4}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 4+3}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{4}} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \cfrac{11}{4}-\cfrac{2}{3}\implies \stackrel{\textit{our LCD will be 12}}{\cfrac{(3)11-(4)2}{12}}\implies \cfrac{33-8}{12}\implies \cfrac{25}{12}\implies 2\frac{1}{12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B2%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B2%5Ccdot%204%2B3%7D%7B4%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B11%7D%7B4%7D%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%0A%5Crule%7B34em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Ccfrac%7B11%7D%7B4%7D-%5Ccfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bour%20LCD%20will%20be%2012%7D%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B%283%2911-%284%292%7D%7B12%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B33-8%7D%7B12%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B25%7D%7B12%7D%5Cimplies%202%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B12%7D)
The first number in the bracket is the x coordinate, the second is the y
So substitute the x and y in to get
8=-5(3)+1 which is 8=-14 which isnt true so the answer is no
I quickly did this on paper and here is my answer I’m not 100% sure I’m correct but here it is
In 1 hour the boats will be 15 miles apart. In 3 hours the boats will be 45 miles apart.
Hope this helps :D
