Answer:
h(8q²-2q) = 56q² -10q
k(2q²+3q) = 16q² +31q
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Replace x in the function definition with the function's argument, then simplify.
h(x) = 7x +4q
h(8q² -2q) = 7(8q² -2q) +4q = 56q² -14q +4q = 56q² -10q

2. Same as the first problem.
k(x) = 8x +7q
k(2q² +3q) = 8(2q² +3q) +7q = 16q² +24q +7q = 16q² +31q

Comment on the problem
In each case, the function definition says the function is not a function of q; it is only a function of x. It is h(x), not h(x, q). Thus the "q" in the function definition should be considered to be a literal not to be affected by any value x may have. It could be considered another way to write z, for example. In that case, the function would evaluate to ...
h(8q² -2q) = 56q² -14q +4z
and replacing q with some value (say, 2) would give 196+4z, a value that still has z as a separate entity.
In short, I believe the offered answers are misleading with respect to how you would treat function definitions in the real world.
Answer:
solve by substitution method
The closer the points are/more uniform they are to the residual line, the better the fit. The more skewed and scattered they are, the model is a worse fit.
Let x represent the shorter sides, then 2x + 1 would represent the longer sides. There are four short sides and two long sides. The perimeter is 162 cm. The equation: 4x + 2(2x + 1) = 162 4x + 8x + 2 = 162 8x + 2 = 162 Subtract 2 from both sides. 8x = 160 Divide both sides by 8. x = 20 The shorter sides are 20 cm in length. The longer sides are 2x + 1, or 41 cm in length. Check: 4 * 20 + 2 * 41 = 162 80 + 82 = 162 162 = 162, values check.
Answer:
SA = 56 sq mi
Step-by-step explanation:
SA = area of base + 1/2(perimeter of base)(slant height)
SA = 16 + 1/2(16)(5)
SA = 16 + 8(5)
SA = 16 + 40
