Q. In Exercises 10 and 11, sim10. 4(2x−4)−5(5x+3In Exercises 12−14, simplif12. x−6x3
Distribute terms: Distribute 4 into (2x−4) and −5 into (5x+3). 4×2x=8x, 4×−4=−16, −5×5x=−25x, −5×3=−15. So, 4(2x−4)−5(5x+3)=8x−16−25x−15.
Combine like terms: Combine like terms in the expression 8x−16−25x−15. 8x−25x=−17x, −16−15=−31. So, 8x−16−25x−15 simplifies to −17x−31.
Simplify powers: Simplify the expression (x3)/(x−6). Add the exponents when dividing powers with the same base. 3−(−6)=3+6=9. So, (x3)/(x−6) simplifies to x9.
