Step-by-step explanation:
so first you combine like terms , 3x-x-4=4 turns into 4x-4=4 then u add 4 to both sides [inverse operations]
4x-4=4
+4 +4
--------------
4x= 8
----------
4. 4
×=2
then u use inverse operations. agian and divide 4 into 8 and you get 2 !! x = 2
2/3 reciprocal is 3/2, & 8/3 reciprocal is 3/8. The numbers are just filled to find their reciprocal!
All you have to do is subtract 10 from 3, which equals -7, and there you have an integer
It is 3y because of the calculation being equivalent
Let's see what the options look like when we multiply the expressions in brackets:
(first, i multiply both parts of the second bracked by the first part of the first bracket, and then the same with the second part of the first bracket:
<span>(1) (3x - 3)(x - 2))
3x2 +6x -3x +6// this is not correct
(2) (3x + 3)(x - 2) </span>
3x2-6x+3x-6//this is not correct
(3)
3(x + 1)(x - 2)
3(x2-2x+x-2)//simplifying:
3(x2-x-2)//multiplying:
3x2-3x-6)
- so this is not correct either
(4) 3(x - 1)(x - 2)
3(x2-2x - x + 2)
3(x2-3x +2)
3x2-9x +6 - well, here is our winner!
