Answer:
(f(x) -f(a))/(x -a) = x +a +1
Step-by-step explanation:
(f(x) -f(a))/(x -a) = ((x^2 +x +5) -(a^2 +a +5))/(x -a) = (x^2 -a^2 +x -a)/(x -a)
= ((x -a)(x +a) +(x -a))/(x -a) = x +a +1
(f(x) -f(a))/(x -a) = x +a +1
Answer:
- 2x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 8x + 2(3x + 5) ← distribute parenthesis by 2
= - 8x + 6x + 10 ← collect like terms
= - 2x + 10
-10x+19 is the answer hope this helped you

Answer: Choice B) 122%</h3>
==========================================
Work Shown:
A = 1250 is the initial amount
B = 2780 is the new amount
C = percent change = unknown for now
The formula to use is
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100
to calculate the percent change.
Basically we calculate the change (B-A) first and then divide that over the original amount A to compute the decimal form of the answer, which is then converted over to percentage form. The "100" tacked on at the end is what converts from decimal to percent form.
---------
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100
C = [ (2780 - 1250)/1250 ] * 100
C = (1530/1250)*100
C = 1.224 * 100
C = 122.4%
C = 122%
---------
The positive C value indicates we have a percent increase. If C were negative, then we'd have a percent decrease.
