Answer:
20
30
Step-by-step explanation:
Do 5 times ten.
5 times -6
Gives you 20
Then do 6 times 4, 6 times 10, to get the final answer of 30.
The given polyn. is not in std. form. To answer this question, we need to perform the indicated operations (mult., addn., subtrn.) first and then arrange the terms of this poly in descending order by powers of x:
P(x) = x(160 - x) - (100x + 500)
When this work has been done, we get P(x) = 160x - x^2 - 100x - 500, or
P(x) = -x^2 + 60x - 500
So, you see, the last term is -500. This means that if x = 0, not only is there no profit, but the company is "in the hole" for $500.
Matt would get about $4 and 90 cents back from the clerk, since 10 dollars minus $5 and 10 cents equals $4 and 90 cents.
