(5x+2x^2-3)-(6+x^2-8x)

13x + x^2 - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to distribute then eliminate redundant parentheses then subtract the numbers then combine like terms then multiply by one then combine like terms and then the answer is 1  13x + x^2 - 9.

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
