A small bottle costs $14.

To solve the problem, the equation would be this:

 8(4+s)=12s-24

Let <em>s </em>represent a small bottle. Since one large bottle is $4 more than a small one, you would write out <em>(4+s)</em>. Then, multiply it by 8 to find one side of the equation, and get <em>8(4+s)</em>. To write out the right side of the equation, you would write out <em>12s </em>to represent 12 small bottles, and <em />subtract <em />24 from that to represent that 8 large bottles is $24 less than 12 small ones. 

Then, proceed to solve the equation to get the answer of <em>s=14</em>. Because a small bottle is $14, you can check your work by substituting the 14 in replace of <em>s</em>. <em />

Megan was painting on a rectangular canvas, and needed a frame for it. The length of the frame is 15 inches and the width is 10
siniylev [52]

Answer:

50 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

P=2l+2w where l is the length of the rectangle and w is the width of the rectangle

Plug in the length (15 inches) and width (10 inches)

P=2(15)+2(10)\\P=30+20\\P=50

Therefore, the perimeter of the frame is 50 inches.

I hope this helps!

kodGreya [7K]
Please use * to denote mult. here, not "x."  "x" is your variable and cannnot also be a symbol for mult.

f(x)g(x) = 3x^3 - 5x^2.

Now let x = 3:

(f*g)(3) = 3(3)^3 - 5(3)^2 = 81-45 =  36  (answer)
