Answer: $0.268
Step-by-step explanation: 5.36 divided by 20 = 0.268
Start with the general formula. The key word is difference. So the general formula is
D(x) = W(x) - R(x) Now substitute in the values for W(x) and R(x)
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 0.01x^2 - (x^2 - 4x + 13) Be very careful about the sign in front of the brackets.
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 0.01x^2 - x^2 + 4x - 13 Do you see what that minus sign did? It affected all 3 terms.
D(x) = 0.002x^3 - 1.01x^2 + 4x - 13 <em>Note: -0.01 - 1x^2 = - 1.01 x^2</em>
That gives you a clear cut answer
C<<<<< answer.
That sign is the worst part of the question. Make sure you understand what it did.
-4 and -5
because to get 16 to 12 you have to subtract 4 but it wants you to add so you put a negative sign infront of it.
and a negative multiply by a negative equals a positive so -3×-5=15
