Hello there!

The Distributive Property allows us to multiply any number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all inside numbers/variables within the parenthesis.

For example;

2(3 + 4)
"2" is our outside number.
"3" and "4" are our inside numbers.
Multiple our outside number by all inside numbers.
2(3) + 2(4)
6 + 8
14.

This is how the Distributive Property works.

Now, let's answer our questions doing this.

#1.)
7(3f + 6)
7(3f) + 7(6)
21f + 42 -- This is your simplified expression for (#1.)

#2.) 
4(9 - 2f)
4(9) + 4(-2f)
36 - 8f -- This is your simplified expression for (#2.)

#3.)

5(8 - f)
5(8) + 5(f)
40 + 5f -- This is your simplified expression for (#3.)

I hope this helps!

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The width which gives the greatest area is 7.5 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an application of differential calculus. Given the area as a function of the width, we simply need to differentiate the function with respect to x and equate to zero which yields; 15-2x=0 since the slope of the graph is zero at the turning points. Solving for x yields, x=7.5 which indeed maximizes the area of the pen

Find the inverse of the following function​
KatRina [158]

f-¹(x)=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}

Answer:

Solution given:

f(x)=\frac{-2x+2}{x+7}

Let f(x)=y

y=\frac{-2x+2}{x+7}

Interchanging role of x and y

x=\frac{-2y+2}{y+7}

doing crisscrossed multiplication

x(y+7)=-2y+2

now solve it:

xy+7x=-2y+2

keep like terms in one side

xy+2y=2-7x

take common

y(x+2)=2-7x

make a value of y

y=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}

So,

f-¹(x)=\frac{2-7x}{x+2}
