Let X be the variable used to represent the expression of the total number of books that Mario has read.
We used 4X to represent "four times the number of books". Then we add -2 to interpret the words "for two less than".
Therefore, we have an expression of 4X-2 for the total number of books that Mario has read.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
when the terms are collected
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = –(x + 6)(x + 2)
The function is increasing until it reaches the vertex, so it will increase until x=-4. The function will decrease after the vertex, so after x = -4
increasing: -∞ < x < -4
decreasing : -4 < x < ∞
Answer:
$600
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to this question would be: 85/99
In this question, Suzan is taking 8 marble from a bag containing 4 red marbles, 4 green ones, 2 white ones, and 2 purple ones. The total marble in the bag should be: 4+4+2+2= 12. The question is how much the probability to get <4 red marble. In this question, the green, white and purple is not specified so you can join them into not red group. It will be easier to find the probability of "have all the red one" which mean Suzan take 4 red marble and 4 not-red marble<span>
Ways to take 8 marble out of 12=12C5= 12!/4!8!= </span>495
Ways to take 4 red marble out of 4= 4C4= 1
Ways to take 4 not red marble out of 8= 8C4= 8!/4!4!= 70
Probability to <span>have all the red ones= 1*70/495= 14/99
</span>Then the probability does not have all the red ones= 99/99 - 14/99= 85/99
