It looks as though you missed a number, but you would factor out an x or a y to get your answer and subtract the whole thing
F(x) = 2x and G(x) = x^2 + 2
(G - F)(x) just means we subtract the functions from each other.
x^2 + 2 - 2x
Let's rearrange the expression
x^2 - 2x + 2
There are 8 ounces in a cup, so there are 125 cups in 1000 ounces.
1000 / 8 = 125
there are 60 minutes in an hour and 120 minutes in 2 hours
so 1000 ounces / 2 hours is
125 cups / 120 minutes
125 / 120 = 1.04 cups per minute
Check your work
multiply times 60 to get cups per hour
1.04 * 60 = 62.4 cups per hour
multiply times 8 to get ounces per hour
62.4 * 8 = 499.2
multiply times 2 to get ounces per 2 hours
499.2 * 2 = 998.4
the number is not quite 1000 due to rounding the 125 / 120 as it is closer to 1.041666666666667
Answer:
You put 8.38 instead of 8.23
