Answer:

$\huge\boxed{3x-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x-1)=\\\\\text{Distribute: }\left \{ {{3*x=3x} \atop {3*-1=-3}} \right.\\\\3(x-1)=\boxed{3x-3}$

The distributive property is a very important property used in algebra.

It states that when we have the statement a(b + c), we can "distribute" the

a by multiplying a times both terms that are inside the parenthses.

So that would give us a(b) + b(c) or ab + bc.

The same process is done here.

Distribute the 3 through both terms to get 3(x) - 3(1) or 3x - 3.

suppose you have 76 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular dog pen. The function A=38x-x^2, where x= width, gives you the area

yan [13]

If A=38x-x^2 then

dA/dx=38-2x

d2A/dx2=-2

Since the acceleration, d2A/dx2 is a constant negative, when velocity, dA/dx=0, it will be an absolute maximum for A(x)

dA/dx=0 only when 38=2x, x=19

A(19)=38(19)-19^2

A(19)=722-361

A(19)=361 ft^2

So the maximum possible area is 361 ft^2

(This will always be true as the maximum possible area enclosed by a given amount of material will always be a perfect square...)

Priya starts with $50 in her bank account. She then deposits $20 each week for 12 weeks.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

20x+50=250

First subtract 50 from both sides, which gives you 20x=200

then divide 20 from both sides which gives you x=10
