A department store advertised that for every $25 you spend at the store, you get $2 off your total bill. Nate's bill came to $15

4 before the discount. He figured he would get a $12 discount. Is his claim reasonable? Explain.

His claim is reasonable because 154÷25 6.16
6.16×2= 12.32 so it would be 12 dollars off!

Find the area of a square with a side measure of 3x − 6 feet. Question 5 options: 9x2−36x+36 sq. ft. 9x2−6 sq. ft. 9x2+36x+36 sq

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

9x^2 - 36x + 36 sq. ft. (the first option).

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square of side d = d^2.

So area of this square = (3x - 6)^2

= (3x - 6)(3x - 6)

= 3x(3x - 6) - 6(3x - 6)

= 9x^2 - 18x - 18x + 36

= 9x^2 - 36x + 36 sq ft.

una ventana rectangular tiene l metros de ancho y h metros de altura, con un perímetro de 6 metros y un área de 2m² ¿cuál es la

seropon [69]

Answer:

The formula for calculating the width of the window is

$w=\frac{-(-3)(+/-)\sqrt{-3^{2}-4(1)(2)}} {2(1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question in English is</em></u>

A rectangular window is l meters wide and h meters high, with a perimeter of 6 meters and an area of 2m². What is the formula for calculating the width of the window?

we know that

The perimeter of the window is equal to

$P=2(l+w)$

we have

$P=6\ m$

so

$6=2(l+w)$

simplify

$3=(l+w)$

isolate the variable l

$l=3-w$ ----> equation A

The area of the window is equal to

$A=lw$

we have

$A=2\ m^2$

so

$2=lw$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$2=(3-w)w$

solve for w

$2=3w-w^2$

$w^2-3w+2=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$w^2-3w+2=0$

so

$a=1\\b=-3\\c=2$

substitute in the formula

$w=\frac{-(-3)(+/-)\sqrt{-3^{2}-4(1)(2)}} {2(1)}$ ---> formula for calculating the width of the window

$w=\frac{3(+/-)\sqrt{1}} {2}$

$w=\frac{3(+/-)1} {2}$

$w=\frac{3(+)1} {2}=2\ m$

$w=\frac{3(-)1} {2}=1\ m$

Suppose that you want to mix two coffees in order to obtain 100 pounds of a blend. If x represents the number of pounds of coffe

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Algebraic expression representing number of coffee B = 100-x

Step-by-step explanation:

An algebraic expression is an expression that contains unknowns denoted with alphabets or symbols and natural numbers.

Coffee blend is 100 pounds and x represent number of pounds of coffee A

Hence coffee B = 100-x

Algebraic expression representing number of coffee B = 100-x
