First, pass all the rate of inflation to ballons/hour

John: 1 b/15s * 3600 s/h = 240 b/h
Jamie: 1 b/20s * 3600 s/h = 180 b/h
Jake: 180 b/h

Then sum the rates to obtain the total rate

Total ballons per hour: 240 b/h + 180 b/h + 180b/h = 600 b/h

If it passes x hours the number of ballons inflated is 600*x

The number of ballon defective are 600*x/80

The number of ballons effectiveley inflated = 600x -600x/80 = 600x - 7.5x = 592.5x.

Answer: option A)

The perimeter of a square is represented by the expression 4(4.3 - 6). Which statement is true?O The perimeter can also be repre
lana66690 [7]

the perimeter is:

4(4x - 6)

Applying distributive property:

4(4x) - 4(6)

16x - 24

Then, the perimeter can also be represented by 16x - 24 because 4(4x - 6) can be simplified to 16x - 24

Taya2010 [7]

The function f(x) represents the number of toys sold per month, where "x" represents the number of months since June

f(x)=2x^4+x^3+6x+5

This function was transformed resulting in the function:

g(x)=f(x)+7

When you add a constant to a function, the resulting transformation is a vertical translation up. In this case, the function f(x) was translated 7 units up.

In terms of the variables, this translation in
