Whenever there is no exponent on a variable,
you can give it an exponent of 1.
So we can rewrite the x's in this problem as x¹.
When we multiply two terms together
with like bases, we add their exponents.
So now just add their exponents to get x².
2nd term: 3+8
= 11
3rd term: 11+8
= 19
4th term: 19+8
= 27
5th term: 27+8
= 35
OR
((n-1)x8)+3
Answer:
80x3 - 180x2 + 109x - 20
—————————————
4
Step-by-step explanation:
(5/6) x = -1/6 (multiply times 6/5)
x = -1/5
Factor
(x-8)(x+3)
Check:
-8+3=-5
-8*3=-24
Use ZPP
x-8=0
x=8
x+3=0
x=-3
Final answer: x=-3, x=8
