Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

$10u^{3}+4u^{2}-2u+10$ or $2(5u^{3}+2u^{2}-u+5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(4u^{3}+4u^{2} +2)+(6u^{3}-2u+8)$

step 1

Group terms that contain the same variable

$(4u^{3}+6u^{3})+(4u^{2})+(-2u)+(2+8)$

step 2

Combine like terms

$(10u^{3})+(4u^{2})+(-2u)+(10)$

step 3

Eliminate parenthesis

$10u^{3}+4u^{2}-2u+10$

step 4

Factor the number $2$

$2(5u^{3}+2u^{2}-u+5)$

Write a linear function f with f(-3) = 1 and f(13) = 5

GalinKa [24]

D = (5-1)/(13-(-3)) = 0.25

f(13) = 13d + x = 13 * 0.25 + a = 3.25 + a = 5
a = 1.75

f(x) = 1.75 + 0.25x

32. The price of a box of tarts is $1 cheaper than that of a loaf of bread. If 3 times the price of a

Delvig [45]

Answer: $8.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a bread = x

Let the price of a tarts = x - 1

If 3 times the price of a loaf of bread is $29.5 more than half of the price of a box of tarts. This can be represented as:

3 × x = 1/2 × (1 - x) + 29.5

3x = 0.5 - 0.5x + 29.5

3x + 0.5x = 29.5 + 0.5

3.5x = 30

x = 30/3.5

x = 8.6
