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

#SPJ1
The volume of the cone is:
V=Sb×h/3=(pi×r²)×h/3, where Sb is the area of the base (circle of radius r) and h is the height.
V=pi×r²×h/3=pi×1.5²×5/3=11.775in³
The closest indicated value is the first one, 11.78in³
Answer:
umm, my regards, how should I help lol
The simplest expression is (2w)+(2*3w), because to calculate perimeter, you have to use this formula: 2length+2width.
