You can first distribute the number into the parenthesis: 3n + 2 - 8n. Now, combine the like terms (n): -5n + 2. It can either be -5n + 2 or 2 - 5n.
Answer:
stress on the cable is 61.312mpa
If steel is used, extension will be 0.91968mm
If polypropylene is used, extension will be 0.1532mm
Step-by-step explanation: detailed explanation and calculation is shown in the image below
2x^2-7x-4=0
2x^2-8x+x-4=0
2x(x-4)+1(x-4)=0
(2x+1)(x-4)=0
x=-1/2, 4
Answer:
1) 500 2) $ 1000 debt 3) $350 4) $2500 debt
Step-by-step explanation:
profit = .5x -250
1) O = .5x -250
250 = .5x
500 = x number to break even
2) f(900) = .5 (900) -250 = $200
from the graph g(200) = total debt = $1000
3) f(x) = -75 = .5x-250 results in x = $ 350
4) f(500) = .5(500) - 250 = 0
from the graph, this corresponds to total debt g (f(500) = $2500 debt
