Answer:
3306.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-8)(x+5)
First thing you do is put the X's into the parentheticals because it is x^2 meaning there are 2 factors with x's. Then, you wonder what factors of -40 could add to get -3. In this case, they are -8 and 5. -8 times 5 is -40 and -8 +5 is -3. Then, you just add -8 and 5 beside the x's in the parentheticals.
Answer:
M ( -4,9)
Step-by-step explanation:
17) replace the given number for "x" and evaluate
a) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = 3
3² + 2(3) + 1
= 9 + 6 + 1
= 16
b) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = -4
(-4)² + 2(-4) + 1
= 16 - 8 + 1
= 9
c) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = 3
(-22.872)² + 2(-22.872) + 1
= 523.128384 - 45.744 + 1
= 478.384384
18) The dependent variable is affected by the other variable and is the "output" The independent variable is the input.
a) y = 3x - 5; "x" is the independent variable
b) the time of day is the independent variable (you would input the time of day to calculate the temperature).
19) Let the x-axis represent the length of the lumber cut off and the y-axis represent the length of the lumber remaining.
