How do I subtract (7a^3 +a-4) -(9-4a^3-2a^2)
---------------------
Change the signs
(7a^3 +a-4) -(9-4a^3-2a^2)
= (7a^3 +a-4) -9 + 4a^3 + 2a^2
Combine like terms, eg, 7a^3 + 4a^3 = 11a^3

a small plane traveled the 1800 km distance between two islands in 3 hours with the wind. the return trip against the wind took 6 hours . find the rate of the plane in still air and the rate of the wind
--------------
Find the 2 groundspeeds using r = d/t
--------------
The plane's airspeed is the average of the 2.
The windspeed is the difference between airspeed and groundspeed.
-----------
"the rate of the plane in still air" is a moronic statement.

how would i graph this inequality y-4 -------
y-4 Add 4
y < x-2
Graph y = x-2
It's a straight line, so you need 2 points.
y = x-2 is a line that goes from lower left to upper right.
y < x-2 is the area below the line. The line is not included.


Exponents/703970: It's a formula for Present Value Formula.
I am trying to understand the operation of an exponent. my problem is this
50000(1.05)^-12
I am confused as to how the calculator got the answer of 0.556837418177559
I was wondering if there is a way for my to do this problem (1.05)^-12 (the numbers will change but this is the first number I came up with) if I have no calculator available.
As for the completion of my problem. In the end I need a higher interest in order to save the amount that I wanted but even though the interest changes, I would like to know if finding the numbers are possible without a calculator.

Linear-equations/703807: Trying to change the following equation into slope intercept form.
3/4x-3y=-5
I first moved the 3/4 x to the other side to get
-3y=-3/4x-5
I am just wondering how you then get the y by itself? I would divide by -3 but how do I divide -3/4 by -3?
Or, do I need to get rid of the fraction to start off? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks

find the equation of the circle w/center (-4,-5) and tangent to the line 2x+7y-10=0
----------------
Find the equation of the line thru (-4,-5) and perpendicular to 2x+7y-10=0
-------
The intersection of the 2 lines is the tangent point. The distance from (-4,-5) to the tangent point is the radius.
-----
(x+4)^2 + (y+5)^2 = r^2 is the circle.

the 4200 km trip from new york to sanfransico takes 7 h flying against the wind but only 6h returning find the speed of the plane in stil air and the wind speed.
---------
Use d = r*t
--> r = d/t to find the 2 groundspeeds
The plane's airspeed is the average of the 2 groundspeeds.
The windspeed is the difference between airspeed and groundspeed.

A rectangle is 3 times longer than it is wide. The perimeter is 44cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
-----------------
L = 4W
2L + 2W = 44
L + W = 22
4W + W = 22
5W = 22
W = 4.4 cm
L = 17.6 cm
================================
PS 3 times longer is 4 times as long, not 3 times as long.
