Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

Group the first two terms and the last two terms.
(x^3+2x^2)−x−2
—————————
x+2

Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from each group.
x^2(x+2)−(x+2)
————————-
x+2



Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, x+2

(x+2)(x^2−1)
———————
x+2

Rewrite 1 as 1^2

(x+2)(x^2−1^2)
————————
x+2

Since both terms are perfect squares, factor using the difference of squares formula, a^2−b^2=(a+b)(a−b) where a=x and b=1 .

(x+2)(x+1)(x−1)
————————
x+2

Cancel the common factor of x+2 .

Divide (x+1)(x−1) by 1.
(x+1)(x−1)

Expand (x+1)(x−1) using the FOIL Method.

Apply the distributive property.
x(x−1)+1(x−1)

Apply the distributive property.
x⋅x+x⋅−1+1(x−1)

Apply the distributive property.
x⋅x+x⋅−1+1x+1⋅−1

Simplify and combine like terms.
Simplify each term.

x^2−x+x−1

Add−x and x .
x^2+0−1

Add x^2 and 0.
x^2−1

If a=12 and 120% of a is equal to 80% of b then what is a+b
mojhsa [17]
A=12
120% of a =80% of b
120%a = 80%b
120a/100 = 80b/100
Divide through by 100
120a = 80b
Divide through by 80
120a/80 = b
But a=12
120x 12/80 = b
18 = b
b = 18

a+b = 12 + 18 = 30

My state's lottery has 30 white balls numbered from 1 through 30 and 20 red balls numbered from 1 through 20. In each lottery dr
seropon [69]

The three whites:

(30 choose 1) * (29 choose 1) * (28 choose 1) = 30 * 29 * 28


The two reds:

(20 choose 1) * (19 choose 1) = 20 * 19


So, The three whites + two reds = 30 * 29 * 28 + 20 * 19 = 24740
