3x*x = 3x^2
3x*2 = 6x
x*1 = x
1*2 = 2
that's basically the FOIL method, multiply first terms, the x terms
then the outside terms, the the inside terms, then the constant (last) terms
F=first, O=outside, I = Inside, L = last
add them up to get 3x^2 +6x +x + 2 = 3x^2 +7x +2
(3x+1)(x+2) = 3x^2 +7x+2
draw a rectangle with one side as 3x+1, the other side as x+2. The area of the rectangle is their product
divide the rectangle into 4 smaller rectangles. with sides 3x by x, 3x by 2, x by 1 and 2 by 1
calculate the areas of each rectangle the sum them.
standard form is
y=ax^2 +bx + c or
f(x) = x^2 +7x +2 where a=1, b=7, c=2
another standard form is to put the quadratic equation in vertex form
by completing the square
f(x) or y = x^2 +7x + 49/4 = -2 + 49/4
y = (x+3/2)^2 = 41/4
where the vertex = (3/2,41/4)
standard equation in vertex form is
y= a(x-h)^2 + k where (h,k) = vertex = (3/2,41/4) with a=1
It's an upward opening parabola with y intercept = 41/4 = 10 1/4, axis of symmetry x=3/2
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 10 - 2x,
Let x= 7
f(7) = 10 2(7)
= 10-14
= -4
36 is the median and add them all then divide by 5 to get the mean
$220.02 - $16.99 = $203.03
$203.03 / $.79 = 257 miles
Answer = 257 miles
