Answer:

C. 8x – 38

Step-by-step explanation:

he equation.

All the options have the parenthesis solves, with all the numbers distribute, so first, you need to do that.

$3(x – 6) + 5(x – 4)=$

$(3*x) - (3*6) + (5*x) -(4*5)=$

now, solve what you can

$3*x=3x\\3*6=18\\5*x=5x\\4*5=20$

And put it all together

$3x - 18 + 5x - 20$

You can link the X therms and the no X terms

$(3x + 5x) =8x\\(-18 - 20) =-38$

And the final equation is: 8x - 38

The answer is C.

3(x-6)+5(x-4) = 3•x+3•-6 = 3x-18 and 5•x+5•-4 = 5x-20

3x-18+5x-20

3x+5x = 8x and -18+-20 = -38

<u>Which gives you...</u>

8x-38

Identify the initial value in each formula below, and state whether the formula models exponential growth or

Hitman42 [59]

Answer: Hello mate!

the equation is written is:

f(t) = 2 / 3 (3)t

And is hard to work with this, but let's try:

I will interpret this function in two ways:

f(t) = (2/3^(3t)) in this case, the exponential part is in the denominator, so when t increases, the denominator also increases, if the denominator increases, the value of the function decreases, then, in this case, we have an exponential decay.

second case:

f(t) = (2/3)^(3t) the case is similar.

we know that 2/3 < 1

now, (2/3)^3t = (2^3t/3^3t)

3 is a number bigger than 2, then 3^3t > 2^3t, meaning that when t increases, bot denominator, and numerator increases, but the denominator increases faster, this means that we still have an exponential decay.

Products of equal value totaling $480 are sold to an audience of an unknown amount of people. the entrance fee is $10 per person

Sholpan [36]

Y = $\frac{10x+480}{x}$

This is because the total cost is 10x + 480 and then that needs to be divided by the amount of people.
