Hey there :)

Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'

5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r

The difference between them = 5r - 2r 

* Your equation 
5r - 2r

* Solving the equation 
= 5r - 2r
= 3r

Which of the following equations is equal to -x^2-4?
Alenkinab [10]
Definitely not D, because one of the x's needs to be negative, and the other should be positive so the x will end up negative when it is multiplied. 
I want to say the answer is C. (-x-2i) (x-2i)
Hope this helps :)

Can someone please explain the math on this one to me? Thanks!
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

3 men = 1 ton in 1 hour

6 men = 2 ton in 1 hour

9 men = 3 tons in 1 hour

with this you find a pattern

3 men = 2 tons in 2 hours

3 men = 3 tons in 3 hours

3 men = 6 tons in 6 hours

6 men = 12 tons in 6 hours

9 men = 18 tons in 6 hours

12 men = 24 tons in 6 hours

15 men = 30 tons in 6 hours

18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours

(This is how i worked it out)

The graph of function g(x) is a transformation of the graph of function f(x) = x2.g(x) =
mariarad [96]

Given:

The graph of function g(x) is a transformation of the graph of function f(x) = x²

As shown: the graph of g(x) is open down

So, we will reflect f(x) over the x-axis, the function will be ⇒ -x²

And there is horizontal compression so, the factor of compression will be > 1

So, the function will be ⇒ -2x²

Finally, there is a vertical shift down 3 units

So,

g(x)=-2x^2-3
