Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 9) = 10

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS =

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

...and is your order of operation.

First, divide 5 from both sides:

(5(x + 9))/5 = (10)/5

x + 9 = 10/5

x + 9 = 2

Next, isolate the variable x, by subtracting 9 from both sides:

x + 9 (-9) = 2 (-9)

x = 2 - 9

x = -7

x = -7 is your answer.

Consider the quadratic function f(y) = 8y2 – 7y + 6. What is the constant of the function?
olga55 [171]

For this case we have the following expression:

f (y) = 8y ^ 2 - 7y + 6

we observe that we have a polynomial of the second degree.

The constant term of the polynomial, is that coefficient that is not written accompanying a variable.

We have then that the constant term of the quadratic function is:

6

Answer:

the constant of the function is:

6
