Answer:
(f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 70
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = x² - 2x - 63
g(x) = x + 7
(f - g)(x) is f(x) - g(x)
<u>Step 2: Find (f - g)(x)</u>
- Substitute: (f - g)(x) = x² - 2x - 63 - (x + 7)
- Distribute -1: (f - g)(x) = x² - 2x - 63 - x - 7
- Combine like terms (x): (f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 63 - 7
- Combine like terms (Z): (f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 70
Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x + 1/4x = 26
~Find common denominators
8/20x + 5/20x = 26
~Combine like terms
13/20x = 26
~Multiply 20/13 to both sides
x = 40
Best of Luck!

Answer:
(C) 2√15
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize that all the triangles are right triangles, so are similar to each other. In these similar triangles, the ratio of the short side to the long side is the same for all.
... CB/CA = CT/CB
... CB² = CA·CT = 10·6 = 60 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by CA·CB; substitute values
... CB = √60 = 2√15 . . . . . . . take the square root; simplify

<em>Comment on this solution</em>
The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle (CB in this case) divides the hypotenuse into lengths such that the altitude is their geometric mean. That is ...
... CB = √(AC·CT) . . . . as above
This is true for any right triangle — another fact of geometry to put in your list of geometry facts.
Answer:
A function is a relation in which each element of the domain, or x-value, is mapped to one element of the range, or y-value.
The question we are asked is if cost is a function of the activity type. This means that cost would be the range and activity type would be the domain.
If this is a function, then each activity type would have only one cost. However, on different days of the week each activity type has different prices; this means there is more than one cost for each activity type, and it is not a function.
