Answer: <em>x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

C. Both (1, 11) and (-1, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing options are:

<em> A. Only (1, 11) </em>

<em>B. Only (-1, -5)  </em>

<em>C. Both (1, 11) and (-1, -5) </em>

<em>D. Neither </em>

To check if an ordered pair is a solution of an equation, replace one variable into the equation an calculate the other one.

Replacing x = 1, we get:

y = 8(1) + 3

y = 11

then (1, 11) is a solution

Replacing x = -1, we get:

y = 8(-1) + 3

y = -5

then (-1, -5) is a solution

On July 3rd, a family left for vacation. They drove 431.2 miles on the first day, then they drove an average of 826.4 miles each
Alexxx [7]
431.2+826.4d=2910.4
431.2 is only the first day therefore it doesn't need the variable because the variable represents the number of days. 826.4 even says "each remaining day" referring to what the variable represents.

Click an item in the list or group of pictures at the bottom of the problem and, holding the button down, drag it into the corre
Molodets [167]
Add the following polynomials:
All polynomials are already ordered according to their degree (exponent), and therefore you can just add straight down in columns.
For x3: 2 + 1 - 3 = 0
For x2: -4 + 6 + 2 = 4 
For x: 6 - 8 -4 = -6
Constants: -3 + 12 - 7 = 2

The answer is:
4x^2 - 6x + 2
