Answer:

The bottle hold 25 ounces of water

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of water the bottle hold, we will follow the steps below;

let x be the number of ounces of water the bottle holds

3/5  of x  = 15 ounces

3/5  ×  x   = 15

\frac{3X}{5}   = 15

Multiply both-side of the equation by 5

\frac{3X}{5}  ×  5   =  15×5

At the left-hand side of the equation 5 will cancel-out 5 leaving us with 3x

3x = 75

Divide both-side of the equation by 3

\frac{3X}{3}  =  \frac{75}{3}

(On the left-hand side of the equation 3 at the numerator will cancel-out 3 at the denominator leaving us with x while on the right-hand side of the equation 75 will be divided by 3)

x = 25 ounce

f(x) = 3x2 - 2x g(x) = x + 4 When finding f(x) · g(x), what could the first step look like? A) 3x2 + 12x2 - 2x2 - 8x B) 3x2 + 7x
Anna71 [15]

(3x^2 - 2x)(x + 4)

<em><u>First step would be: distributive property.</u></em>

3x^3 + 12x^2 - 2x^2 - 8x

<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>

3x^3 + 10x^2 - 8x is the simplified form of the functions multiplied.

Your answer is D.

If q(x)=7x^2-1 find q(-9)
liq [111]

For this, we are just going to plug in -9 for every x and then solve the equation:


q(x)=7x^{2} -1


q(-9)=7(-9)^{2} -1


q(-9)=7(81)-1


q(-9)=566


Now we know that q(-9) is equal to 566.

A plot of land doubles in size by adding x meters to the length and x meters to the width of the land. if the original plot had
ladessa [460]
Lets write as an equation the info provided in the problem:
original area = 200*300 = 60000 squared meters
Adding x meters to the length is: 300 + x
Adding x meters to the width is: 200 + x
If the area doubles in size we have: 2*<span>60000
Now writing as a single equation all info:
(300 + x)(200 + x) = 120000
We have to make the operations and solve:
60000 + 300x + 200x + x^2 = </span><span>120000
x^2 + 500x - 60000 = 0
This is a squared trinomial, to solve it we need two numbers that subtracted give us 500 and multiplied -60000:
(x + 600)(x -100) = 0
So there are two solutions, x = -600 and x = 100, we choose the positive one:
x = 100
thererefore the value of x is 100 meters</span>
