Answer:
14s^4-7s^2+15
Step-by-step explanation:
At the beginning the only bracket that is changing is the 3rd one because of the minus. (12s^4-6s^2+4s)+(6s^4-4s+27)-4s^4+s^2+12 then open the rest of the brackets. And start calculating.i will just to show you which ones u calculate together. (I'll separate the numbers depending on what they're squared to).
12s^4+6s^4-4s^4=14s^4
-6s^2-s^2=7s^2
27-12=15
All together is 14s^4-7s^2+15
Answer:
0.4 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
In a day
Miguel is to feed Chester ,
Chester can eat 3/4 of an ounce for each pound of body weight.
Chester weighs 6.8 pounds
Hence:
1 pound = 3/4 ounce
6.8 pounds = x ounces
Cross Multiply
x = 6.8 × (3/4) ounces
x = 5.1 ounces
Chester is to be fed 5.1 ounces of food each day.
The amount of food left after 1 day
= 5.5 ounces - 5.1 ounces
= 0.4 ounces
Hence, 0.4 ounces of food is left after 1 day
So
y=ax^2+bx+c
(x,y)
sub the points and solve
(4.28,6.48)
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)+c
(12.61,15.04)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)+c
well, for 3 variables, we need equations and therefor 3 points
maybe we are supposed to assume it starts at (0,0)
so then
0=a(0)^2+b(0)+c
0=c
so then
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)
solve for a by subsitution
first equation, minut a(4.28)^2 from both sides
6.48-a(4.28)^2=b(4.28)
divide both sides by 4.28
(6.48/4.28)-4.28a=b
sub that for b in other equation
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+((6.48/4.28)-4.28a)(12.61)
expand
15.04 =a(12.61)^2+(81.7128/4.28)-53.9708a
minus (81.7128/4.28) both sides
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a(12.61)^2-53.9708a
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a((12.61)^2-53.9708)
(15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708))=a
that's the exact value of a
to find b, subsitute to get
(6.48/4.28)-4.28((15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708)))=b
if we aprox
a≈-0.038573167896199
b≈1.6791118501845
so then the equation is
y=-0.038573167896199x²+1.6791118501845x
