Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

10x = 105 - (12x - 247) //Distribute - sign

10x = 105 - 12x + 247 // Add 12x & combine like terms

10x + 12x = 352

22x = 352 //Divide 22

x = 352/22

x = 16

Use the box method to distribute and simplify (-5x-2)(-2x^2+6x).

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} - 12x$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd.

$10x^{3} - 30x^{2} + 4x^{2} -12x$

2) Collect like terms.

$10x^{3} + (-30x^{2} +4x^{2} )-12x$

3) Simplify.

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} -12x$

Therefor, the answer is, 10x^3 - 26x^2 - 12x.

An ice cream store has the pricing shown below. You want to determine the best value. The height of the cone is 4.5 in and the d

nignag [31]

Solution:

Step 1:

We will calculate the volume of ice cream in the single scoop

The volume of the ice cream will be

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 \\ r=\frac{2in}{2}=1in(cone) \\ h=4.5in \\ r=\frac{3in}{2}=1.5in(radius\text{ of the hemisphere\rparen} \end{gathered}$

By substituting the values, we will have

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h+\frac{2}{3}\pi r^{3} \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5+\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{99}{14} \\ V=\frac{165}{14} \\ V=11.79in^3 \end{gathered}$

Step 2:

We will use the formula below to calculate the volume of the two scoops of ic cream

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5in+\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{99}{7} \\ V=\frac{132}{7} \\ V=18.86in^3 \end{gathered}$

Step 3:

We will use the formula below to calculate the volume of the three scoops of ic cream

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{6}{3}\pi r^3 \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5+2\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{297}{14} \\ V=\frac{363}{14} \\ V=25.93in^3 \end{gathered}$

For the first ice cream with one scoop

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{3.50}{11.79} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.30 \end{gathered}$

For the second ice cream with two scoops

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{4.50}{18.86} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.24 \end{gathered}$

For the third ice cream with three scoops

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{5.50}{25.93} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.21 \end{gathered}$

Hence,

The final answer is

The triple sold at $5.50 has the best value because it has the lowest price of $0.21 per cubic inch of the ice cream
