Step-by-step explanation:
well,
(y - 7)² = (y - 7)(y - 7)
remember how to multiply 2 expressions ?
you have to multiply every term of one expression with every term of the other expression and sum the results all up (incl. considering their individual signs, of course).
so, when we do the multiplication, we get
(y - 7)(y - 7) = y×y - 7×y - 7×y + (-7)×(-7) =
= y² - 14y + 49
and that is clearly different to y² - 49
FYI
y² - 49 is the result of
(y - 7)(y + 7)
because
y×y + 7×y - 7×y + (-7)(7) = y² - 49
Answer:
d) 500 scoops
Step-by-step explanation:
looking at the trend of scoops sold per year, 500 seems to be the correct answer. let me know if this is wrong.
Ive never seen a question lie this before
Since the first figure is a square I guess it stand for x^2
then we have -2x + 3x = x ( the 2 stets of rectangles)
and finally -3 + 1 = - 2
So i am presuming its x^2 + x - 2
Option b
Im not sure though
I think your answer is the second one
best of luck
Answer: $70 per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.
So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates (0,420) .
Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)
To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.
420 - 980 = -560
0-8 = -8
-560/-8 = 70
The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.
