Answer:
-63
Step-by-step explanation:
(-25+4^2) * 7
(-25+16) * 7
-9*7=-63
One of the ways to graph this is to use plug in a few x-values and get an idea of the shape. Since the x values keep getting squared, there is an exponential increase on either side of the y-axis. You can see this by plugging in a few values:
When
x=0,f(x)=0
x=1,f(x)=1^2=1
x=2,f(x)=2^2=4
x=3,f(x)=3^2=9
x=4,f(x)=4^2=16
The same holds true for negative x-values to the left of the y-axis since a negative value squared is positive. For example,
x=−1,f(x)=(−1)2=1*−1=1
x=2,f(x)=(−2)2=−2*−2=4
The graph of f(x)=x^2 is called a "Parabola." It looks like this:
3x - 9y - 5x - 7y
Combine like terms
( 3x + - 5x ) + ( - 9y + - 7y )
= - 2x - 16y
Answer: the cost of each bush is $15
the cost of each flower is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of each bush.
Let y represent the cost of each flower.
Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as
12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1
Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as
7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes
84x + 210y = 1680
84x + 120y = 1500
Subtracting, it becomes
90y = 180
y = 180/90
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
12x + 30 × 2 = 240
12x + 60 = 240
12x = 240 - 60 = 180
x = 180/12
x = 15
Answer:
$7.50
Step-by-step explanation:
$42 × 3 = $126
$27 × 5 = $135
$126 + $135 = $261
$275 - $261 = $14
$14 - $6.50 = $7.50
