Solve the equation using the distributive property and properties of equality.

From here on, it's just a matter of condensing down the numbers. Very straightforward, and easy points on tests and quizzes. You can do this in your head if you want, or you can just do it on your calculator (which is probably the best way to go as it's faster and more accurate).

So here, what we've proven is that in our given equation, if

a

=

1

and

b

=

−

2

, then it would yield us a product of

−

1

.

Once again, these types of evaluation problems are very straightforward, and are usually always easy points on tests and quizzes if you have an inkling of an idea of what the concept is about. Again, if you have a calculator with all the appropriate functions, that makes it even easier.

= 11

Just as a sidenote here, make sure you're aware of the difference between

(

6

x

)

2

and

6

x

2

. The former refers to both the 6 and the

x

being squared, whereas the latter shows only the

being squared. Just be careful not to mix the two.

Try one more:

Speaking from experience, when you work with rational (fraction) polynomials on paper, it often tends to take up a bit of space and get messy. Therefore, I'd suggest you tried solving one equation at a time if you have the same issue.

Also, sometimes you may come across values that you don't want to type again in your calculator (like non-recurring decimals). For these, use the store function on your calculator to get maximum accuracy. With TI-84 and 83s, you can save values as letters (X, Y, etc.). Hence, you can just write out your equation using these, and hence significantly reduce the risk of typing the number wrong, while saving yourself some time.

Answer:

x=3,5

Explanation:

x2−8x+15=0

Try to express the terms of the equation in square form.

Adding 16 both sides of the equation,

(x2−2⋅x⋅4+42)+15=16

or,(x−4)2+15−16=0

or,(x−4)2−1=0

or,(x−4)2−12=0

This is the a2−b2=(a+b)(a−b)form.

(x−4+1)(x−4−1)=0

or,(x−3)(x−5)=0

Now, equate both the terms to zero since both of them when multiplied, give zero.

Either,

x−3=0

∴x=3

Or,

x−5=0

∴x=5

Ans:x=3,5 Hope this helpsXD...!!

B: 2 32/48

Step-by-step explanation:

8 4/8 - 5 5/6

Turn to fractions:

8 4/8 = 68/8

5 5/6 = 35/6

Common denominator: 24

68 x 3 = 204

8 x 3 = 24

35 x 4 = 140

6 x 4 = 24

Set-up:

204/24 - 140/24

Solve:

64/ 24

Simplifying to Mixed Number:

64/24 = 8/3 = 2 2/3 = 2 32/48

Answer:

Midpoint = (-0.5, 3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is 4.

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness. Mathematically, slope is calculated as "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

Given that, a line passing through points (3, 9) and (1, 1) we need to find the slope of the line,

Slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

So,

Slope = 9-1 / 3-1 = 8/2 = 4

Hence, the slope of the given line is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The required balance is $939.9

Given,

Time=7 years

Principal=700

Rate=4.3%

Compound Intrest:

Compound interest (or compounding interest) is the interest on a loan or deposit calculated based on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods.

The formula of the compound interest is,

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^T[/tex]

Now, substituting the given values into the above formula we get,

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^T \\A=700(1+\frac{4.3}{100})^7\\ A=939.9[/tex]

Answer:

-500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence;

    97, 94, 91 ......

Unknown;

The 200th term of the sequence;

Solution:

Since we were given an arithmetic progression, we need to first find the common difference;

 Common difference  = second term - first term

                                     = 94 - 97  

                                     = -3

To find the 200th term, we use the expression below;

     Sn  = a + (n-1)d

   a is the first term

    n is the nth term

   d is the common difference

 S₂₀₀ = 97 + (200 - 1 ) x -3 = -500
