The first step for solving this expression is to distribute

through the first set of parenthesis.

× (x - 9)
Now use the FOIL method to multiply each term in the first parenthesis by each term in the second parenthesis. This will look like the following:

x × x -

x × 9 -

x -

× (-9)
Remember that multiplying two negatives together equals a positive,, so the expression changes to:

x × x -

x × 9 -

x +

× 9
Calculate the product of all of the sets of multiplication to make the expression become:

x² -

x -

x +

Lastly,, calculate the difference of -

x -

x to find your final answer.

x² -

x +

283 divided by 12.3 = 23.008 and rounded it will just be 23.
Solve the equation
So first we subtract 8 from both sides because we apply the inverse operation.
-2x+8=-16
-8 -8
Now we apply it and re write the equation
-2x=-24
Now the inverse operation for multiplication is division, so we apply it.
-2x=-24
------------
-2 -2
We are left with x=8
So our final answer is x=8
Check our work
-2(8)+8=-16
CORRECT ANSWER. :)
Answer:
150 sqaure ft
Step-by-step explanation:
okay so the formula for area of a trapezoid is
1/2 (b1 + b2) h
so base one of 15 plus two of 10 os 25 ft
25 feet divided by 2 is 12.5 so 12.5 × 12 is 150
