1. write in standard form
2. group like terms
3. combine like terms
4. distribute the negative
Answer:
15x² - 3x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
(12x² + 2x) - (-3x²+ 5x + 7)
First open the parentheses by applying the distributive property.
To do this, multiply each term you have inside (-3x⅔ + 5x + 7) by -1.
Thus, you would have the following:
12x² + 2x + 3x² - 5x - 7
Add like terms
12x² + 3x² + 2x - 5x - 7
15x² - 3x - 7
Answer:
Computers R Us has a better price because it cost less at the same production rate.
Step-by-step explanation: to graph y=23.5x you just plug in numbers. If x = 1, 23.5 (1), which equals y. Now you can keep doing this to get up to 4. You may use a calculator if youd like.
Answer: 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
What are the corresponding sides?
4 and 3
8 and 6
9 and 6.75
This is very easy, just make a fraction
4/3 = 4/3
8/6 = 4/3
9/6.75 = 4/3
Hence the answer is 4/3
Answer:
P = 0.5Q - 20
Step-by-step explanation:
P = kQ + c
substitute Q = 60 , P = 10 into the equation
10 = 60k + c → (1)
substitute Q = 240, P = 100 into the equation
100 = 240k + c → (2)
subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c
90 = 180k ( divide both sides by 180 )
= 
= 0.5 = k
substitute k = 0.5 into (1) and solve for c
10 = 60(0.5) + c
10 = 30 + c ( subtract 30 from both sides )
- 20 = c
then
P = 0.5Q - 20
