4(2x-5)+7(x+2)
bracket means multiplying
do 4(2x+5) first
4*2x=8x
4*-5=-20
7*x=7x
7*2=14
8x-20+7x+14
do the x first
8x+7x=15x
-20+14=-6
answers: 15x-6 or -6+15x

is the proportion of tires that are defective so

so we would expect around 1600 tires to be defective
Answer:
the first equation
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of two squares. The number which, when multiplied together three times yields the original number.
You are given the equation 36 = 9x² + 4y². You are asked to find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola. A hyperbola has the following general equation x²/a² + y²/b² = 1. the goal here is to find the slopes of the hyperbolic equation. So divide both sides by 36
36 = 9x² + 4y²
(1/36)[36 = 9x² + 4y²]
1 = x²/4 + y²/9
a² = 4
a = 2
and
b² = 9
b = 3
To find the slope, divide a/b and you will get 2/3.
