Answer:
A. -11
Step-by-step explanation:
In the function, replace x with -2
R(x) = x^2 - 3x - 1 ➡ R(-2) = (-2)^2 - 3 × 2 -1 = -11
D = rt
We are given the rate r to be 15 mph.
We are given the time (in hours) to be 3.5.
We need to find D.
D = (15)(3.5)
D = 52.5 miles.

Answer: 8/35 is the exact answer as a fraction; approximately that is equal to 0.22857 (rounded to 5 decimal places)
Work Shown:
The volume of this prism is equal to the length times width times height. We multiply the three fractions out. To do this, multiply straight across. The numerators group up and multiply. The denominators form a separate group to multiply.
Multiply the numbers up top (numerators): 2*3*4 = 6*4 = 24
Multiply the numbers in the bottom (denominators): 3*5*7 = 15*7 = 105
We end up with 24/105. We can divide both numbers by 3 to reduce the fraction (note how 3 is a factor of each multiplication above)
24/3 = 8
105/3 = 35
So that's how I got 8/35
If you want to convert to decimal form, then 8/35 = 0.22857 approximately.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations need to match the problem statements. If we let C and S represent the costs of Cherry and Sweet potato pies, respectively, then the revenue from each sale can be expressed as an equation.
1 cherry and 7 sweet potato for $114 ⇒ C +7S = 114
14 sweet potato and 11 cherry for $309 ⇒ 11C +14S = 309
Note that we have used C and S in the second equation in the same order as they appeared in the first equation, even though the problem statement has that order reversed. This facilitates solving the equations using elimination or Cramer's rule.
These equations match Option 4.
__
The cost of a cherry pie can be found by eliminating S from the equations. We can do that by subtracting twice the first equation from the second:
(11C +14S) -2(C +7S) = (309) -2(114)
9C = 81 . . . . . simplify
C = 9 . . . . . . . divide by 9
The cost of each cherry pie is $9.
