Answer:

Option D. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to obtain the answer to the question.

Method 1:

Let 2x + 1 = 0

Making x the subject, we have

2x + 1 = 0

Collect like terms

2x = –1

Divide both side by 2

x = –1/2

Now, put the value of x into the expression 4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7, we have:

4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7

x = –1/2

4(–1/2)³ – 6(–1/2)² – 8(–1/2) + 7

4(–1/8) – 6(1/4) – 8(–1/2) + 7

–1/2 – 3/2 + 4 +7

– 4/2 + 4 + 7

– 2 + 4 + 7

= 9

Method 2:

Divide 4x³ – 6x² – 8x + 7 by 2x + 1

Please see attached photo for explanation.

Ieda and Thanh both offer piano lessons. Ieda charges an initial fee of $8.50 and an hourly rate of $11.00. Thanh charges an ini
Verizon [17]

Answer:

after 3 hours of instruction.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, start by setting up the equation.

Leda charges an initial fee, meaning this fee is only going to be one time. However, there is an hourly rate of 11. Since we do not know how many hours these piano lessons are going to last, we put a variable (I will use x), after this number.

The initial fee is 8.50. There needs to be a variable after 11 because that is the number we don't know.

The equation for Leda's lessons are <em>8.50+11.00x. </em>

Now, we need to find out what the equation for Thanh's lessons are going to be, because we're going to be setting both equations equal to each other to find out when they cost the same. At the moment both equal each other, is when they are the same amount.

Thanh's equation also has an intial fee and an hourly rate. So, the equation will be

<em>10.00+10.50x. </em>

Now we solve.

<em>8.50+11.00x = 10.00+10.50x </em>

First, subtract from both sides. We will do the numbers without variables first.

<em>8.50+11.00x = 10.00+10.50x </em>

<em>-8.50               -8.50 </em>

<em>____________________</em>

<em>0     +11.00x =   1.50 +10.50x</em>

Then, subtract the x's. (taking away the zero because it is equivalent to nothing)

<em>11.00x =   1.50 +10.50x</em>

<em>- 10.50x            -10.50x</em>

<em>__________________</em>

<em>0.50x = 1.50 </em>

Lastly, to find out the answer, we divide.

1.50/0.50= 3.

<u>To check your answer, you can plug into the original equation. </u>

<em>8.50+11.00 times 3 = 10.00+10.50 times 3 </em>

Both sides equal 41.50, meaning they are equal to each other!
