12a³ + 12a² = -3a       | + 3a

12a³ + 12a² + 3a = 0

3a(4a² + 4a + 1) = 0

3a(2a + 1)² = 0

3a = 0 or (2a + 1)² = 0

1) 3a = 0      | : 3

a = 0

2) (2a + 1)² = 0

2a + 1 = 0           | - 1

2a = -1           | : 2

a = -1/2

a ∈ {-1/2, 0}

Used formula:

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(x) + k, look at the graph below and determine the value of k.
Anton [14]

Answer:

Given the graph f(x) = \frac{1}{3}x -2 and g(x) = \frac{1}{3}x + 3

We have to find the value of k;

Since, g(x) = f(x) +k

\frac{1}{3}x+3 = \frac{1}{3}x-2 +k

Subtract \frac{1}{3}x from both sides we get;

3 = -2 +k

Add 2 to both sides we get;

3+2 = -2 +k +2

Simplify:

5 = k

or

k = 5

Therefore, the value of k = 5

A table is on sale for 65% off. the sale price is $154 . what is the regular price?
Yuliya22 [10]
The original price is $254.10 or 254 rounded. 154 times .65 is 100.1. Add 100.1 to the sale price which is 154 and you'll get the original, 254.
Hope this helps :)

what’s the better value 1/2 kg of bulk sunflower seeds costing $.70 per 100 grams or A 500 mg bag of prepackage seeds costing $3
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

A 500 mg bag of prepackage seeds costing $3.95

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to know the amoun of grams in 1/2 kg to find the cost of the sunflower seeds:

1 kg→1000 grams

1/2 kg→ x

x=(1000*(1/2))/1

x= 1000/2

x= 500 grams

Second, you have to find the cost of 500 grams of sunflower seeds:

100 grams → $0.70

500 grams→    x

x=(500 *0.70)/100

x= 3.5

According to this, 1/2 kg of of bulk sunflower seeds cost $3.5 which is cheaper than the 500 mg bag of prepackage seeds that cost $3.95 and this means that the better value is 1/2 kg of bulk sunflower seeds as the amount is also higher as 500 mg is equal to 0.5 grams.
