Answer:

step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 is good: -5x + 8 = 7

step 2 (error): meant to subtract 8 on both sides

-5x = 7 - 8

-5x = -1

step 3 : divide -5 on both sides

x = -1 / -5

x = 1/5

Express as a trinomial (2x+8)(x-3)

Luden [163]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(2x+8)(x-3)=2x^2+2x-24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use FOIL:}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\(2x+8)(x-3)=(2x)(x)+(2x)(-3)+(8)(x)+(8)(-3)\\\\=2x^2-6x+8x-24\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=2x^2+(-6x+8x)-24\\\\=2x^2+2x-24$
