Answer:

+15

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase is generally regarded as being positive. If units are dollars, an increase of $15 can be represented by the integer +15.

Additional comment

If units are dimes, then the number would be +150. So, you see, the units are important to know.

It also depends on what is increasing and what is being represented by the integer. If it is an increase in debt, then the change in net worth might be -15.

What is the product?(4y − 3)(2y2 + 3y − 5)8y3 + 3y + 158y3 − 23y + 158y3 − 6y2 − 17y + 158y3 + 6y2 − 29y + 15

We need to find the product of :

$\mleft(4y-3\mright)\mleft(2y2+3y-5\mright)$

So, the result as following:

$\begin{gathered} \mleft(4y-3\mright)\mleft(2y^2+3y-5\mright) \\ =4y\cdot(2y^2+3y-5)-3\cdot(2y^2+3y-5) \\ =8y^3+12y^2-20y-(6y^2+9y-15) \\ =8y^3+12y^2-20y-6y^2-9y+15 \\ \\ =8y^3+6y^2-29y+15 \end{gathered}$

So, the answer is the option 4. 8y3 + 6y2 − 29y + 15

F(x) = 2x2 + 12x + 1 Determine the vertex

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex would be the highest/lowest point so lets factor this first

when we factor we get

2(x^2+6x+8)

2(x+4) (x+2)

Using zero product property we find the 2 x values and x intercepts are

-4 and -2

the middle point of these points is -3

Substitute -3 for x and solve

2(-3+4) (-3+2)

2 * 1 * -1

2*-1

-2

(-3,-2) is the vertex

Trisha and Byron are washing and vacuuming cars to raise money for a class trip. Trisha raised $38 washington 5 cars and vacuumi

ANEK [815]

Answer:

They charged $6 for washing and $2 for vacuuming the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the charge of washing a car be 'x'.

And also let the charge of vacuuming a car be 'y'.

Now according to question, Trisha raised $38 washing 5 cars and vacuuming 4 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

$5x+4y=38\ \ \ \ \ equation\ 1$

Again according to question, Byron raises $28 by washing 4 cars and vacuuming 2 cars.

So framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

$4x+2y=28\ \ \ \ \ equation\2$

Now multiplying equation 2 by '2', we get;

$2(4x+2y)=28\times2\\\\8x+4y=56\ \ \ \ equation\ 3$

Now we subtract equation 1 from equation 3 and get;

$(8x+4y)-(5x+4y)=56-38\\\\8x+4y-5x-4y=18\\\\3x=18\\\\x=\frac{18}{3}=6$

Now substituting the value of 'x' in equation 1, we get;

$5x+4y=38\\\\5\times6+4y=38\\\\30+4y=38\\\\4y=38-30=8\\\\y=\frac{8}{4}=2$

Hence They charged $6 for washing and $2 for vacuuming the car.
