Answer:

For first equation:

x = 18.5

For second equation:

x = 4.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First one:

-2x + 54 = 17. Subtract 54 on both sides.

-2x = -37. Divide all by -2.

x = 18.5

Second one:

4x - 54 = -9. Add 54 to both sides.

4x = 45. Divide all by 4.

X = 4.25.

The length of a living room is 12 feet and its width is 1012 feet. The length of the room is being expanded by x feet. Choose an

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Option C. 10.5(12 + x) square feet

Option E. (126 + 10.5x) square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the original living room

we know that

The area of the original living room is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$L=12\ ft\\W=10\frac{1}{2}\ ft=10.5\ ft$

substitute

$A=(12)(10.5)=126\ ft^2$

step 2

Find the new area of the living room

The length of the room is being expanded by x feet

we have

$L=(12+x)\ ft\\W=10.5\ ft$

The new area is

$A=10.5(12+x)\ ft^2$

The expanded form of the expression is

Apply distributive property

$A=10.5(12)+10.5(x)\\A=(126+10.5x)\ ft^2$

The table shows a company’s profit based on the number of pounds of food produced.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$5,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae used,

$a=\dfrac{(\sum x^2y\sum xx)-(\sum xy\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$b=\dfrac{(\sum xy\sum x^2x^2)-(\sum x^2y\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$c=\dfrac{\sum y}{n}-b\frac{\sum x}{n}-a\frac{\sum x^2}{n}$

Where,

$\sum xx=\sum x^2-\dfrac{(\sum x)^2}{n}$

$\sum xy=\sum xy-\dfrac{\sum x\sum y}{n}$

$\sum xx^2=\sum x^3-\dfrac{\sum x\sum x^2}{n}$

$\sum x^2y=\sum x^2y-\dfrac{\sum x^2\sum y}{n}$

$\sum x^2x^2=\sum x^4-\dfrac{(\sum x^2)^2}{n}$

Putting the values from the table, we get the best fit line as,

$y= -0.0817x^2 + 102.24x - 20421$

As we want to calculate the profit at 350 pounds, so putting x=350, we get

$y= -0.0817(350)^2 + 102.24(350) - 20421=\$5354.75$
