Answer:
B. - 4x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(p о n) (x) is the same thing as (p(n(x))
We know n(x) = x - 5, so let's input that into our expression
(p(x - 5))
Since we know p(x) = x^2 + 6x, let's replace the x with the new value x-5. Now our expression is:
p(x) = (x - 5)^2 + 6(x - 5)
Now all we have to do is simplify.
(x - 5)^2 is the same as: (x - 5)(x - 5)
Using the foil method, it simplifies to: x^2 - 10x + 25
6 (x - 5) = 6x - 30
Now our expression is: x^2 - 10x + 25 + 6x - 30
Combine like terms: x^2 - 4x - 5
The expression is: - 4x - 5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
We will use the slope intercept form of the line and then convert later.
Equation
y = mx + b is the general form
Givens
Two data points
(4,180)
(9,325)
Solution
325 = 9x + b
<u>180 = 4x + b</u> Subtract
145 = 5x Divide by 5
145/5 = 5x/5 Do the division
29 = x This represents the cost / day
180 = 4x + b Substitute x = 29 to find b
180 = 4*29 + b Combine
180 = 116 + b Subtract 116 from both sides.
180 - 116 = b
64 = b
Solution for y = mx + b
y = 29x + 64
In Standard form this is
- 29x + y = 64 But the first number must be plus
29x - y = - 64 <<<< Answer A
Part B
y = 29x + 64
f(x) = 29x + 64
Part C
The graph is shown below. Various points are filled in using y = 29x + 64. The y intercept is (0,64) which is labeled. Let x = 1 , 2, 3, 4, ... 10 (which is arbitrary). This may be more easily done on a spreadsheet if you know how to use one to make graphs.
