Answer:
Let's start with part B. if it was originally 10 cm tall and it goes up 0.5 cm. each day, then we know that to go up one cm it needs two days. With that information we can say that 8*2 = 16. So it needs 17 days to go up 8.5 cm which would make it 18.5 cm tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 0.5x + 10
0.5x + 10 = 18.5
0.5x = 18.5 - 10
0.5x = 8.5
x = 8.5/0.5
x = 17 days
1) Let's evaluate that expression, given that a=4.9, b=-7, and c=-0.5
Note that we have rewritten it as a fraction so that we can easily operate. Also, we have applied here the PEMDAS order of operations, prioritizing the exponents.
<span>This is a quadratic equation . We order to equate to zero
</span>2x²<span> – 7 = 9
</span>
2x² - 7-9 = 0
2x² - 16 = 0
This equation is a binomial
2* (x² - 8) = 0
<span>We choose the simplest method . The equation with practice it can be calculated in the memory

The product is equal to 0 if one of the factors is zero

2≠0 ∨ x² - 8 = 0
x² = √8
x = √8 ∨ x= - √8
Answer : x = √8 ∨ x = -√8
x=2y-2
x=y+3
Substitute the second equation into the first
y+3=2y-2
solve for y
y=5
plug into original
x=y+3=5+3=8 or x=2(5)-2=8
Allentown got 8 ft of snow, Georgetown got 5 ft of snow.
(1/4ab)^-2
Remove negative exponent by rewritten the equation as (4ab)^2
AUse Product rule to get:
4^2a^2b^2
Now raise 4 to the second power to get:
16a^2b^2
The last answer is correct.
