Answer: Option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let f(y)=x.
Your answer is 9x-8.
3x+4, x-10, 5x-2. If you combine the x's you get 9x. You can combine the numbers however you'd like. I chose to combine +4 and -2. That's 2. 2-10 = -8. Therefore your answer is 9x-8.
Answer: 10, 11, & 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the age of the youngest child.
Their ages are consecutive so,
Youngest: x
Middle: x + 1
Oldest: x + 2
The age of the Youngest squared (x²) equals 8 times the Oldest [8(x + 2)] plus 4.
x² = 8(x + 2) + 4
x² = 8x + 16 + 4
x² = 8x + 20
x² - 8x - 20 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0
x - 10 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
x = 10 or x = -2
Since age cannot be negative, x = -2 is not valid
So, the Youngest (x) is 10
the Middle (x + 1) is 11
and the Oldest (x + 2) is 12
Answer:
c.
Step-by-step explanation:
Law of sines
= 
A and B are angles.
a and b are sides opposite corresponding angles.
Answer:
1) D. 
2) E. The coefficient of 
is -16.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A polynomial is an algebraic expression of the form 
, where 
is the grade of the polynomial. In this case, the only equation that satisfies this definition is:
Correct answer: D
2) Let 
, we proceed to expand the expression by algebraic means:
We see that coefficients for 
and are -16 and 0, respectively. Hence, the incorrect answer is E.
