Answer: 44 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3 longest are 14.5 14.5 and 15 so the answer is adding them and 44 is the answer.
Answer:
A) p = 2x - 4 for the expression. B) Your team scored 44 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <u>P</u> represent the points your team made.
Since the question says "Your basketball team scored 4 fewer than twice as many points as the other team." this is how I came up with the expression.
p = 2x - 4 ( our points = 2 times more then the other teams points minus 4.
Using this expression and the given information that the other team made 24 points, I solved B.
44 = 2(24) - 4.
If you solve for the vertex of the function, you would get (-3, -1). So I think it would be x = -3 and the function’s maximum value would be -1. Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
5, 8, 11, 14, 17,....
f(n) = 5+3n where n is the number of steps after the first two. 7 steps is 20 faces.
Step-by-step explanation:
A sequence is a list of numbers that are related. The first number in the sequence is 5 since the first part of the stairs has 5 faces (5 squares, the dark don't count). Every time you add a "stair" you add 2 blocks - one underneath to support and one as the step. This adds 3 faces. So 5 becomes 8. Repeat and 8 becomes 11. You add 3 faces each time. So the sequence is
5, 8, 11, 14, 17,....
This is a constant pattern of adding 3 each time after the initial start. So we can write a rule. We start with 5 + 3(each stair step). So if the cube is 7 stairs high, that is 5 more repetitions of adding blocks after the start (remember the start has 2 steps already). So 5 + 3(5) = 20. 7 steps high will have 20 faces.
