So first remember the order of operations. Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, addition, subtraction.
So we have the following problem.
-(3*2)2+4*3-2
Multiply the three and two inside the parentheses first.
-6*2+4*3-2
Next multiply any numbers that need multiplied.
-12+12-2
Next add and subtract from left to right to get an answer of...
-2
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 26
y = x + 3
Plug in the equation for y
3x + 2(x + 3) = 26
Multiply the 2 with what is in the parantheses
3x + 2x + 6 = 26
Combine like terms and solve for x
5x + 6 = 26
5x = 20
x = 4
1. 4x - 8 + 2x + (-5x) + x^2 - 3 = 4x - 8 + 2x - 5x + x^2 - 3...now, we just combine like terms....lets group them...it will be easier ...x^2 + (4x + 2x - 5x ) - 8 - 3 = x^2 + x - 11
2. 2x + 5x = 8x
3. 2r + 4 + 3x - 2 = 3x + 2r + (4 - 2) = 3x + 2r + 2
4. 3x - 2y - x + 5y = (3x - x) + (5y - 2y) = 2x + 3y
5. 2y^2 - 8y^3 + 5y - 5y^2 + 4y^3 = (4y^3 - 8y^3) + (2y^2 - 5y^2) + 5y =
-4y^3 - 3y^2 + 5y
V or x is something so if you add 9 to get 8 then you must subtract 9 from 8 to get -1 which would be your answer
None of the answers are correct because it would be 4, 10, 12, 17, then 41
