The number of players the team can bring to the tournament is 12

What is algebraic expression?

The appropriate algebraic expression in this case is the one that considers the cost of renting the bus of $1075.50 as well as the budgeted meal cost for all players that played in the softball team.

In other words, there is fixed charge which is the rent and meal costs which increase as the number of players increases

TC=a+bX

TC=total amount raised for the tournament=$1525.50

a=cost of renting the bus= $1075.50

bX=cost per meal per player*number of players=$37.50*X

$1525.50=$1075.50+$37.50*X

$1525.50-$1075.50=$37.50*X

$450.00=$37.50*X

X=$450.00/$37.50

X=12 players

The team can only bring a team of 12 players to the tournament.

Answer:

Length of the room should be 10.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum area of a rectangular room is 84 square feet.

let the length of the room = x feet

Then area of the room = length × width

84 = length × 8 = 8x

Length x = 84/8 = 10.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The housepainter mixed 5 gallons of blue paint with every 9 gallons of yellow paint in order to make a green paint.

To determine the ratio of gallons of blue paint to gallons of yellow paint that will make the same shade of green, we will divide the gallons on blue paint required by the gallons of yellow paint required. It becomes

The ratio is 5/9 = 5:9

It means that for every 5 gallons of blue paint, 9 gallons of of yellow paint is required

Write each quadratic function below in terms of linear factors.a)f(x)=x²-25b)f(x)=x²+25c)f(x)=4x²+25d)f(x)=x²-2x+1e)f(x)=x²-2x+4
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

a) (x + 5) (x - 5)

b) (x + 5i) (x - 5i)

c) (x + (5i/2)) (x - (5i/2))

d) (x-1)(x-1)

e) x +i√3 +1) (x -i√3+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will need to factorize each quadratic function making it equal to zero first and then proceeding to find x  

a) f(x) = x²-25

x²-25 = 0

⇒(x + 5) (x - 5)

b) f(x)=x²+25

x² + 25 = 0

x²= -25

x = √-25

x = √25i

x = ±5i

⇒(x + 5i) (x - 5i)

c) f(x)=4x²+25

4x²+25 = 0

4x²= -25

x² = -25/4

x = ±√(-25/4)

x = ±(√25i)/2

x = ±5i /2

⇒(x + (5i/2)) (x - (5i/2))

d) f(x)=x²-2x+1

x²-2x+1 = 0

⇒(x - 1)²

e) f(x)=x²-2x+4

x²-2x+4 = 0

x²-2x = -4

x²-2x +1 = -4 +1

x²-2x + 1 = -3

(x-1)² +3 = 0

(x-1)²= -3

x-1 = √-3

x = ±√3i +1

⇒(x +i√3 +1) (x -i√3+1)
