On the bottom left, the answer is subtraction property of equality because you need to subtract 4x to the 7x to simplify the equation.
For this case what we must do is find a quadratic function that is already factored.
This is because in the factored quadratic equations, it is easier to observe the zeros of the function.
In this case, the zeros of the function represent the time at which the company did not make any profit.
We have the following equation:
p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
We observed that there was no gain in:
t = 3
t = 5
The other roots are discarded because they are negative
Answer:
a.p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
Plug in 3 for n, since you're looking for the third term.
T(1) = 3(1) - 1 = 2
T(2) = 3(2) - 1 = 5
T(3) = 3(3) - 1 = 8
It would be 8.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
12 divided by 5= 2.4
OR
2 2/5
Hope this helps! :)
