Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!

You can simply do it.

Here, -3x -6 +(-1) is given.

In this question, the like term is "-6" and "-1" because both are coefficients.

Combine it.

= -3x -6 -1 { as (-) (+)=(-)}

= -3x -7 { when there is (-) sign then it will be added but the sign would be minus}.

Or you can also write it as -( 3x+7). {taking (-) common}

Hope it helps...

Find the greatest common factor of 210, 84, and 56

mr Goodwill [35]

To get the Greates Common Factor (GCF) of 84 and 210 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the copies of factors and multiply them:

84: 223 7210: 2 357GCF: 2 3 7

The Greates Common Factor (GCF) is: 2 x 3 x 7 = 42

Two rockets, A and B, are shot from two different launch pads. The path of rocket A can be represented by the quadratic function

oksano4ka [1.4K]

A(t) = −(t − 8)2 + 535
You would like to find the maximum of this function: −(t − 8)^2This part is always negative or zero as a number squared cannot be negative and you multiply by -1: Thus the maximum of this part MAX:−(t − 8)^2=0
The max will be when t=8 and its value is 535

The town of madison has a population of 25,000. The population is increasing by a factor of 1.12 each year. Write a function tha

GaryK [48]

<h3>The population P(t) at the end of year t is $P(t) = 25,000 \times (1.12)^t$ </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial population of town of Madison = 25,000

The rate at which the population is increasing = 1.12 times

So, the increase in population first year :

( the initial population) x $(1.12)^1$ = 1.12 x ( 25,000)

= 28,000

So, the population at the end of first year = 28,000

Similarly, the increase in population second year :

( the initial population) x (1.12)² = ( 25,000) x (1.12)²

= 31,360

So, the population at the end of second year =31,360

Now, to calculate the population in t years from now:

The population P(t) at the end of year t is

$P(t) = 25,000 \times (1.12)^t$
