F(x)=125-(125*0.2x)
to find the value of the phone after 3 years, you put x=3.
f(3)=125-(125*0.2(3))
f(3)=50
Answer:
n = -29
Step-by-step explanation:
n + 16 = - 13
- 16 -16
n = -29
If you assign variables to the problem, it can make things a lot simpler. Lets say chairs are x and tables are y. Therefore you have:
2x+6y=40
5x+3y=25
Now you can isolate the variable of one equation and put it into another (it doesn't matter which. I'm going to manipulate the top equation to plug into the bottom one).
2x=40-6y
x=20-3y
Now I plug into bottom equatioin:
5(20-3y) + 3y=25
100-15y+3y=25
100-12y=25
-12y=-75
y=$6.25
Now you can plug in y in either equation to get x.
2x+6(6.25)=40
37.5+2x=40
2x=2.5
x=1.25
So it costs $6.25 for each table and $1.25 for each chair. If you think about it, it would make sense for the table to cost more for the chair.

Constant terms = -2
Answer:
(a) (a² +3a -1)(a² -3a -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant term of the product of the factors will be equal to the product of their constants. Since you want that product to be +1, the signs of the factor constants must be the same. That eliminates choices (c) and (d).
__
To tell which of choices (a) and (b) is correct, we can compute the squared term in their product. Let's do it in a generic way, with the constant (±1) being represented by "c".
We want the a² term in the product ...
(a² +3a +c)(a² -3a +c)
That term will be the result of multiplying both sets of first and last terms, and adding the product of the middle terms:
(a²·c) +(a²·c) -9a² = a²(2c-9)
So, we want the factor (2c-9) to be -11, which means c=-1, not +1.
The correct factorization of the given expression is ...
(a² +3a -1)(a² -3a -1) . . . . matches choice A
