You can make it easier by replacing x^n with another variable, factoring, then putting x^n back in the end.
Using exponent and algebra rules, rewrite x^2n - 2x^n + 1 as
(x^n)^2 - (2 x x^2) + 1
Then, let x^n = m.
m^2 - 2m + 1
Now factor that: (m - 1)^2
And now put x^n back: (x^n - 1)^2
Answer:
With rare exceptions, cars decrease in value with age. Depending on other factors, like accidents, repairs, or other damage, the value of a car may decrease even faster. If you borrowed money to buy a car, you might owe more on your car loan than its current value. When that happens, you have negative equity in the car. Some car dealers say you won’t be responsible for the remaining balance on your old car loan when you trade in your old car. But that might not be true. Dealers sometimes just roll over the negative equity into your new car loan, so you still end up paying it.
Step-by-step explanation:
Say you want to trade in your car for a newer model.
Your loan payoff is $18,000
Your car is worth $15,000
You have negative equity of $3,000. That must be paid if you want to trade in your vehicle. If the dealer promises to pay off the $3,000, it shouldn’t be included in your new loan.
But some dealers
add that $3,000 to the loan for your new car
subtract the amount from your down payment
or do both
E) 12 minutes
A normal curve has approximately 95% of graph between mean - 2sd and mean + 2sd
So 95% of the times will be between 0 and 12 minutes. 6 - 2x3 to 6 + 2x3
2.5% will take over 12 minutes
Strangely 2.5% will also take less than 0 minutes to process which shows the normal curve is not perfect in this example.
For this problem, we can say that corresponding angles are congruent, or the same, this also means that their angle measures have to be the same. Then, our equations for our angles will be vertical angles, which means that they must equal each other. So we would then write our equation as 3x+20=4x+10 or 4x+10=3x+20. Then, to combine like terms, we will subtract 3x from both sides, resulting in x+10=20. Then we will subtract 10 from both sides, resulting in x=10.
Answer:
y = -2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, you need to pick two points and put into the slope formula. It doesn't matter which ones, you will get the right answer regardless. I used (-3, 11) and (2, 1).
Now that you have the slope, you can plug it into point-slope form to find the equation in slope-intercept form. You will also need to plug one of the given points. Again, it doesn't matter which one.
