Answer:
1 false
2 true
3 true
4 false
5 true
Step-by-step explanation:
f(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) and g(a) = (5 – a).
1 false f(a) is a second degree polynomial and g(a) is a first degree polynomial
When added together, they will be a second degree polynomial
2. true When we add and subtract polynomials, we still get a polynomial, so it is closed under addition and subtraction
3. true f(a) + g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) + (5 – a)
Combining like terms = a^2 +a -2
4. false f(a) - g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) - (5 – a)
Distributing the minus sign (2a - 7 + a^2) - 5 + a
Combining like terms a^2 +3a -12
5. true f(a)* g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) (5 – a).
Distribute
(2a - 7 + a^2) (5) – (2a - 7 + a^2) (a)
10a -35a +5a^2 -2a^2 -7a +a^3
Combining like term
-a^3 + 3 a^2 + 17 a - 35
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of Lightbulb = x
cost of switch is x-8
9x + 4(x-8) = 520.50
Use distributive property:
9x + 4x -32 = 520.50
Simplify:
13x -32 = 520.50
Add 32 to both sides:
13x = 552.50
Divide both sides by 13
X = 42.50
A lightbulb costs $42.50
A switch costs 42.50-8 = $34.50
Answer:
14.76 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
Plug in the side lengths and solve for c:
7² + 13² = c²
49 + 169 = c²
218 = c²
14.76 = c
So, the hypotenuse is approximately 14.76 cm
