\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @cseltzer 6 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) wrong

cseltzer:

haha

snowflake0531:

So, first, we know that we can ignore the numbers, the -6 and 7, because the other half of the equation already got 1 All we need to know is ___ + 2x = -4x

snowflake0531:

y+ 2x= -4x What is y

cseltzer:

-6 maybe

snowflake0531:

Firstly, wrong again secondly, shut it

cseltzer:

lol

snowflake0531:

:)

Countrygirl123:

its -6x right not because cseltzer said

snowflake0531:

Yep, it's -6x

cseltzer:

told ya

snowflake0531:

it's not -6, it's -6x so, ur still wrong cseltzer

cseltzer:

:(

Countrygirl123:

ha

snowflake0531:

:(

cseltzer:

close

snowflake0531:

not rly

Countrygirl123:

so i put -6x in the box

snowflake0531:

yes now b?

cseltzer:

si

snowflake0531:

( a^2 + ___ + 1) - (___ + 5a + ___) = 4a^2 -2a + 7 By the way, remember that it's subtracting the whole expression of (___+5a+___)

Countrygirl123:

ok

snowflake0531:

So, let's first do the ^2 ones, the square ones We have a^2 - (____) = 4a^2 What is ____

snowflake0531:

Remember that 2 negatives equal a positive

Countrygirl123:

\[3a ^{2}\]

snowflake0531:

Actually, but we need to subtract something So, it's -3a^2, instead

Countrygirl123:

ok

snowflake0531:

( a^2 + ___ + 1) - (3a^2 + 5a + ___) = 4a^2 -2a + 7 And to make it less confusing, we can just delete those that are made equal (__+1) - (5a + ___) = -2a+7

snowflake0531:

So __-5a = -2a what is __

Countrygirl123:

3a

snowflake0531:

Yep So now we have (3a+1) - (5a + ___) = -2a+7 And deleting those that are equal 1-___=7 find ___

Countrygirl123:

-6

snowflake0531:

Yep, so now you have all of your values

Countrygirl123:

ok thank you
