Given the function 
. The above function can be written as
a)Now, the function 
has minimum value since the coefficient of 
is 
.
b) The minimum value of the function occurs at 
and its value is
c)The minimum value of the function occurs at .
Note: In option A, it should be "+" instead of "(".
Given:
The expression is
To find:
The equivalent expression.
Solution:
We have,
Using distributive property, we get
On combining like terms, we get
The expression 
is equivalent to the given expression.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
I am going to show you how easy this is. Once you understand, you will be able to do this forever.
:
Assuming the side of the rectangle are (L) length and (W) width, the perimeter:
2L + 2W = 234
:
"the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide,", the equation for this statement:
L = 2W
:
In the first equation, we can replace L with 2W, then we have
2(2W) + 2W = 234
4W + 2W = 234
6W = 234
Divide both sides by 6
W = 234%2F6
W = 39 meters is the width
:
Remember it said the length is twice the width, therefore:
L = 2(39)
L = 78 meters is the length
:
:
Check this by finding the perimeter with these values
2(78) + 2(39) =
156 + 78 = 234
Answer:
-5k+7p+1 I THINK
Step-by-step explanation
destribute the negative
(-3k + p – 1) – (2k – 6p – 2)
-2k+6p+2
add to the (-3k + p – 1) to simplify
-5k+7p+1
