We are trying to simplify the expression 7x+3-5x+8+4x-1

Simplify by like terms- like terms are numbers with the same variable to the same degree (ex. 5x and 28x, $3x^{2}$ and $7x^{2}$ , 3xy and 9xy) and also all constants are like terms (normal numbers ex. 9, 189, 3, -2)

So lets rearrange this equation

7x-5x+4x+3+8-1

Remember to bring along the negative or positive sign (don't think it as subtracting 5x, think of it as negative 5x)

All the numbers with x are like terms and a constants are like terms. So combine.

6x+10 is the simplified expression

A ball is thrown vertically upward. After t seconds, its height h (in feet) is given by the function h(t) = 52t - 16t^2 . What i

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

42.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height function is a parabola. The maximum value of a negative parabola is at the vertex, which can be found with:

x = -b/2a

where a and b are the coefficients in y = ax² + bx + c.

Here, we have y = -16t² + 52t. So a = -16 and b = 52. The vertex is at:

t = -52 / (2×-16)

t = 13/8

Evaluating the function:

h(13/8) = -16(13/8)² + 52(13/8)

h(13/8) = -169/4 + 169/2

h(13/8) = 169/4

h(13/8) = 42.25

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The standard deviation of weight for this species of cockroaches is 4.62.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A different species of cockroach has weights that are approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 50 grams. After measuring the weights of many of these cockroaches, a lab assistant reports that 14% of the cockroaches weigh more than 55 grams.

To find : What is the approximate standard deviation of weight for this species of cockroaches?

Solution :

We have given,

Mean $\mu=50$
