You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. 5.6(s+7) = 34.4 + 6.8s
Multiply equation by 10 to get rid of those annoying decimals
56(s+7) = 344 + 68s
:
56s + 392 = 344 + 68s
:
392 - 344 = 68s - 56s
:
48 = 12s
s =
s = 4
:
Check solution in original equation:
5.6(4+7) = 34.4 + 6.8(4)
5.6(11) = 34.4 + 27.2
61.6 = 61.6; confirms our solution of s=4

multiply
2. (x^2-7x+5)(3x-3)
Multiply it like you learned to do to numbers in the 3rd grade
x^2 - 7x + 5
.......*..3x - 3
-------------
You should get: 3x^3 - 24x^2 + 36x - 15

factor
3. 21c^2 + 6cy - 35c - 10y
Factor by groups
3c(7c + 2y) - 5(7c + 2y)
factor out (7c+2y) and you have:
(7c+2y)(3c - 5)
