Answer:

expression for total cost is given by

0.80(3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to find the expression for the total cost

Let us find the cost for x pounds of peanut , y pounds of cashews and z pounds of almonds

cost of 1 pound of peanut = $3.95

cost of x pounds of peanut = $3.95x

cost of 1 pound of cashews = $4.25

cost of y pounds of cashews = $4.25y

cost of 1 pounds of almonds = $5.99

cost of z pounds of almonds = $5.99z

total cost = 3.95x+4.25y+5.99z

cost after 20% off = total cost - 20% of total cost

                                         = 80% of total cost  

cost after 20% off =80%(3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)

cost after 20% off =0.80(3.95x+4.25y+5.99z)

now we can plug x= 2 , y= 3 and z=1

so we have

cost after 20% off =0.80(3.95(2)+4.25(3)+5.99(1))  =$ 21.31

Which is the product of (x - 5)2?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 5)²

= (x - 5)(x - 5)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

x(x - 5) - 5(x - 5) ← distribute both parenthesis

= x² - 5x - 5x + 25 ← collect like terms

= x² - 10x + 25 → B
