#

for my working, 4(x^2-2x+1) + (x-1) +9

#

I expanded the + (x-1) to x + 1

#

is that wrong?

#

4(x^2-2x+1) + (x-1) +9 <- This seems correct. Simplify this.

#

someone else expanded to x - 1 which gave them 4x^2 - 7x + 12 when I got + 14 instead

ruby pawn 4(x^2-2x+1) + (x-1) +9 <- This seems correct. Simplify this.

simplifying it I got 4x^2 - 7x + 14

How?

#

What is (4x1)-1+9 ?

#

12 right?

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:19 AM

#

yes

ruby pawn Apr 16, 2024, 4:19 AM

#

4x^2 - 7x +12

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:20 AM

#

I think it's because I expanded the (x-1) to x+1

#

wait so where does the brackets go for that then

ruby pawn Apr 16, 2024, 4:20 AM

#

What do you mean when you say expanded the (x-1) to x+1?

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:20 AM

#

ohh

#

I thought + x -1 made it positive for some reason

#

but it stays negative

Which class is this?

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:21 AM

#

functions

ruby pawn Apr 16, 2024, 4:22 AM

#

I mean, is this Calc1?

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:22 AM

#

methods of mathematics

#

I think this is touching on pre calc

ruby pawn Apr 16, 2024, 4:22 AM

#

I see

#

Just try to solve in orders then you should be fine.

#

thank you

ruby pawn Apr 16, 2024, 4:23 AM

#

Have a good one!

final sequoia Apr 16, 2024, 4:26 AM
