I'm assuming you want to simplify the expression since it's not equal to anything.. you can't solve for "a" unless it's equal to something.

factor

8a³ - 2a²+ 12a - 3

2a²(4a - 1) + 3(4a -1)

 (4a - 1) is a like term that can be combined further.

(2a² + 3)(4a - 1)

marta [7]

Answer:

One rose bush = $3

One bunch of ornamental grass = $4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations to solve for this. Let cost of 1 rose bush be r and cost of 1 ornamental grass be g. Thus we can form 2 equations:

14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71

We can multiply the first equation by -2 so that we can eliminate g. Thus, we have:

(*-2)14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71\\-------\\-28r-14g=-140\\5r+14g=71\\--------\\-23r=-69\\r=\frac{-69}{-23}=3

Thus, 1 rose bush is $3. Now plugging in r = 3 into the first original equation, we can solve for g:

14r+7g=70\\14(3)+7g=70\\42+7g=70\\7g=70-42\\7g=28\\g=\frac{28}{7}=4

Thus, 1 bunch of ornamental grass is $4.

Solve for x: 4x(3y-2)=7x+11
kupik [55]

Answer:

x=11(12y-15)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x(3y-2)=7x+11

12xy-8x=7x+11

12xy-8x-7x=11

12xy-15x=11

x(12y-15)=11

x(12y-15)/(12y-15)=11/(12y-15)

x=11/(12y-15)
