Answer:

(x + 2)^2 - 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 7

Now x^2 + 4x = (x + 2)^2 - 4 so we have:

f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 4 - 7

f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 11.

Can someone please help with the last problem

Brut [27]

Answer:

18x +9h

Step-by-step explanation:

Such problems are tedious, but not difficult. The trick is to avoid making mistakes in the algebra.

$\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{(9(x+h)^2)-(9x^2)}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{9(x^2+2xh+h^2)-9x^2}{h}=\dfrac{18xh+9h^2}{h}=\boxed{18x+9h}$

For Amy's cell phone plan, she pays $30 per month and $0.05 per text message. She wants to keep her bill under $60 per month. Wh

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

.05x + 30 < 60

Step-by-step explanation:

.05x + 30 < 60

.05 is the cost per text. Since we don't know how many text messages she sends, we have to use x to represent it. We know she pays $30 every month no matter what so, we can write .05x + 30. < means it has to be LESS than $60 NOT EQUAL TO, but less than.

I hope this helps you out!
