You can use (a+b)2 = a2+2ab+b2.
(2x - 3)2 = (2x)2 + 2(2x)(-3) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9
Or you can use FOIL.
(2x - 3)2 = (2x - 3)(2x - 3) = (2x)2 + (2x)(-3) + (-3)(2x) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9

Answer:
2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
For each of her snack bag, she can fill it with a 1/3 cup of pretzels
1/3 x 8 = 2 2/3 cups
Answer:
- x = -1/2(1 +√21) ≈ -2.79129
- x = -1/2(1 -√21) ≈ 1.79129
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the middle term is supposed to be 4x.
We can remove a common factor of 4 to simplify this a bit.
x^2 +x -5 = 0
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c = 0
where a=1, b=1, c=-5.

The <em>quadratic formula</em> gives the solutions as ...

Filling in the given coefficients, we have ...
x = (-1 ±√(1^2 -4·1·(-5)))/(2·1)
x = (-1±√21)/2
The solutions are x = -1/2(1 +√21) and -1/2(1 -√21).
_____
<em>If what you wrote is what you intend</em>, then the equation simplifies to 4x^2 -16 = 0.
Dividing by 4 and factoring the difference of squares gives ...
x^2 -4 = 0
(x -2)(x +2) = 0
These factors are zero (hence their product is 0) for the values x = 2 and x = -2.
The solutions are x=2 and x=-2.
Answer: second one (B) - 2.045, 2.43, 259
Step-by-step explanation: 2.045 is the lowest value due to the 0 in the hundredths place. 2.43 has a lower value than 259, it being a decimal.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct variation: two variables, one variable is a constant multiple of another variable
y = k x .... k constant
-x+4y=-2
4y = x - 2
y = 1/4 x -1/2 ..... y = k x + b y is not a simple multiple of x
