Question

Solve for x.
(17x - 23)
(&r - 4)*
-(3x + 17)

Answer 1

17rx2−23rx−71x+75

Explanation:

(17x−23)(xr−4)−(3x+17)

=(17x−23)(xr−4)+−1(3x+17)

=(17x−23)(xr−4)+−1(3x)+(−1)(17)

=(17x−23)(xr−4)+−3x+−17

=(17x)(xr)+(17x)(−4)+(−23)(xr)+(−23)(−4)+−3x+−17

=17rx2+−68x+−23rx+92+−3x+−17

=17rx2+−68x+−23rx+92+−3x+−17

=(17rx2)+(−23rx)+(−68x+−3x)+(92+−17)

=17rx2+−23rx+−71x+75
