What is the coefficient of the variable in the expression 6-4x-8x+2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
6 0

I think the trick is to add the two middle terms together.  (And the 2 end terms).

8 - 12x

The variable is x. The coefficient is - 12.

8 is a constant.

The coefficient always goes with a variable.

3x^2 + 2x + 5

Nothing can be combined.  The leading coefficient is 3 (which goes with the greatest power of the variable x^2 in this case) and the other coefficient is 2. 5 is a constant.

<u><em>Answer: =30</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This question it's about PEMDAS. This lesson it's about order of operations. p-parenthesis, e-exponents, m-multiply, d-divide, a-add, and s-subtract. It can also go left to right.

do calculate with exponent first.

2³=2*2*2=8

6+8*3

multiply left to right.

8*3=24

add left to right.

6+24

=30

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

A rectangular storage container without a lid is to have a volume of 10 m3. the length of its base is twice the width. material
Valentin [98]

The function in variable w giving the cost C (in dollars) of constructing the box is C(w) = 30w² + 270/w. The result is obtained by using the formula of volume and area of the box.

<h3>How to determine the function?</h3>

We have a rectangular storage container without a lid.

  • Volume, V = 10 m³
  • Length, l = 2w
  • Width, w = w
  • Base costs $15/m²
  • Sides costs $9/m²

The formula of volume of the box is

V = l × w × h

Where

  • l = length
  • w = width
  • h = height

So, the height is

10 = 2w × w × h

10 = 2w² × h

h = 10/2w²

h = 5/w²

To find the total cost, calculate the area of base and sides of the box!

See the picture in the attachment!

The base area is

A₁ = 2w × w = 2w² m²

The sides area is

A₂ = 2(2wh + wh)

A₂ = 2(3wh)

A₂ = 6wh

A₂ = 6w(5/w²)

A₂ = 30/w m²

The total cost is

C = $15(2w²) + $9(30/w)

C = $30w² + $270/w

The function of the total cost is

C(w) = 30w² + 270/w

Hence, the function of constructing the box is C(w) = 30w² + 270/w.

Basic geometry question plsss
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

x=53

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagoras theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2

here a and b are two small sides and c is hypotenuse (longest side)

28^2 + 45^2 = c^2

784 + 2025 =x^2

2809 =x^2

\sqrt{2809} =x

53 =x

Write an equation for the line parallel to y= -2x+1 that contains (-2,5)
grin007 [14]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallels line have the same slope, when an equation is in the form y= mx + b, m is the slope. In this problem slope = - 2

Now with the slope what is missing is the y-intercept, the problem says that the line contains the point (-2, 5), replacing that point in the equation you can solve it to find the y-intercept

y = mx + b

5 = (-2)(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 + b

y = - 2x +1
