Start by writing what is said:
2x + 4 = -6
From there just solve for x:
Subtract 4 from both sides
2x + 4 - 4 = -6 - 4
2x = -10
Divide by 2 to get x by itself
2x/2 = -10/2
x = -5
Start with the word “distribute” meaning to pass equally. Now distributive property means to distribute equally. For example 2(4x+5) you wanna distribute the 2 amount the parentheses so that it’s”distributed evenly. 2(4x+5) is now 8x+10
Answer:
(5x + 7y)(25x² - 35xy + 49y²)
Step-by-step explanation:
125x³ + 343y³ ← is a sum of cubes and factors in general as
a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b² )
125x³ = (5x)³ ⇒ a = 5x
343y³ = (7y)³ ⇒ b = 7y
125x³ + 343y³
= (5x + 7y)((5x)² - (5x × 7y) + (7y)²)
= (5x + 7y)(25x² - 35xy + 49y²) ← in factored form
The number of possibilities for the first one is 50 choose 5, and the number of possibilities for the second one is 60 choose 6. Since 50 choose 5 is 2118760 and 60 choose 6 is 50063860. There are less possible outcomes for state "A" and therefore you have a higher chance of winning.
