Simplify the expression: 3(2x - 4) + 5x
Answer: 11x - 12
Distribute 3 to get 6x - 12, then add 5x to get 11x - 12.
If x = -3, what is the value of 2x² - 5x + 1?
Answer: 34
Substituting x = -3 gives 2(9) - 5(-3) + 1 = 18 + 15 + 1 = 34.
Which expression is equivalent to (4a³b²)(3a²b⁵)?
Answer: 12a⁵b⁷
Multiply coefficients (4×3=12) and add exponents of like bases (a: 3+2=5, b: 2+5=7).
Factor completely: x² - 9x + 20
Answer: (x - 4)(x - 5)
Find two numbers that multiply to 20 and add to -9, which are -4 and -5.
Simplify: (5x²y - 3xy² + 2y) - (2x²y + xy² - 4y)
Answer: 3x²y - 4xy² + 6y
Distribute the negative sign and combine like terms: 5x²y-2x²y=3x²y, -3xy²-xy²=-4xy², 2y+4y=6y.
What is the result of dividing 15a⁴b³ by 5a²b?
Answer: 3a²b²
Divide coefficients (15÷5=3) and subtract exponents (a: 4-2=2, b: 3-1=2) to get 3a²b².
