Answer:  12

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Expand (2 + x)³, factor out the x, then replace x with zero.

(x+2)^3 = (x+2)(x+2)(x+2)\\.\qquad \quad =(x+2)(x^2+4x+4)\\.\qquad \quad =x(x^2+4x+4)+2(x^2+4x+4)\\.\qquad \quad =x^3+4x^2+4x\quad +2x^x+8x+8\\.\qquad \quad =x^3+(4x^2+2x^2)+(4x+8x)+8\\.\qquad \quad =x^3+6x^2+12x+8

\dfrac{(x+2)^3-8}{x}=\dfrac{(x^3+6x^2+12x+8)-8}{x}=\dfrac{x^3+6x^2+12x}{x}\\\\\\=\dfrac{x(x^2+6x+12)}{x}=x^2+6x+12\\\\\\ \lim_{x \to 0} \quad x^2+6x+12\quad =\quad 0+0+12\quad =\quad \large\boxed{12}

Which expression has exactly three terms? Select all the expressions that apply.
irga5000 [103]

The answer is expressions D, E, and G.

In algebra, a ‘term’ usually means the different parts of an expression that are separated by + and - signs.

Options A and B only have 1 term, an x or y³, so these are incorrect.

Option C has 1 term as well, ‘xyz’, because they are all multiplied together which makes it one term.

D and E both have 3 terms each, but F has 4 unique terms so this is incorrect also.

G has 3 unique terms, x³, x^4, and 7x, so this is correct.

When H is expanded, you will end up with more than 3 unique terms, so this is incorrect.

I hope this helps!

Which of the following expressions is correct? Select one: a. marginal cost = (change in quantity of output)/(change in total co
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

b. average total cost = total cost/quantity of output

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal cost is the additional cost of producing one more unit of output and it can be calculated by taking the change in total cost and dividing it by the change in quantity, its formula is:

  • <em>Marginal cost = change in total cost/ change in quantity</em>

The average total cost (sometimes referred to simply as average cost) is total cost divided by the quantity of output, its formula is:

  • <u><em>Average total cost = total cost / quantity of output</em></u>

The total cost is obtained adding together the fixed costs and the variable costs, its formula is:

  • <em>Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost</em>

The average variable cost is obtained when variable cost is divided by quantity of output, its formula is:

  • <em>Average variable = variable cost / quantity of output</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
