Hey there.. I will be more than happy to help you today.. :)

A Number squared decreased by ten

We will do this with steps:-

Step 1 - "A number ". So, Let's say any number be x

Step 2 - "A number squared". Our number x is squared i.e. x²

Step 3 - "A number squared" ( i.e. x² ) is decreased by ten
x² - 10

This is your answer.
Hope this helps you :)

Answer:

Replace key words with variables, numbers, and operations. “A number squared” is a power where the base is the variable and the exponent is 2. “Decreased by ten” means you must subtract 10 from the squared number.

How do you do this math

Basile [38]

Answer: y = -3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write a linear equation is with slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

Thus, the equation is y = -3x - 6

How do you distinguish between multiples and factors of a number, and justify your evaluation of the LCM & GCF of a set of n

Reil [10]

Answer:

Look to the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

- Multiples of a number are the numbers after multiplying the number

by an integer

- Ex: The multiples of 2 are 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , .......... because 2 × 1 = 2 ,

2 × 4 = 4 , 2 × 3 = 6 and 2 × 4 = 8

- Factors of a number are the number multiplied together to get the

number

- Ex: The factors of 6 are 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 because 1 × 6 = 6 and 2 × 3 = 6

- Lowest common multiple of the set of numbers (LCM) is the

smallest number divisible by these numbers

- Ex: The lowest common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6 because 6 is divisible

by 2 and 3 and there is no number before it divisible by both

- Greatest common factor of the set of numbers (GCF) is the highest

common factor of these numbers

- Ex: The greatest common factor of 12 and 18 is 6 because

→ The factors of 12 are 1 , 2 , 3, 4, 6, 12

→ The factors of 18 are 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 , 9 , 18

→ The greatest common factor on both numbers is 6

HI can someone do these 5 problems? it will really help me out I'll give out brainliest to the person who answers them. (No link

Softa [21]

Answer:

$73.60

$345

simple interest = amount deposited x time x interest rate

600 + (600 x 0.055 x 5) = $765

600 + (600 x 0.055 x 5) > $2000

$765 $2000

He would not have $2000 in 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of items purchased = $75 + (2 x $8.50) = 92

If there is a 20% discount, he would pay (100 - 20%) 80% of the total cost =

0.8 x $92 = $73.60

commission earned = percentage commission x amount of sales

10% x $3450

= 0.1 x 3450 = 345

Amount he would have in his account = amount deposited + simple interest

simple interest = amount deposited x time x interest rate

600 x 0.055 x 5 = $165

Amount in his account in 5 years = $165 + 600 = $765

He would have less than $2000 in his account. he would have $765

Three times a number, less twice the number and 9 is 17. What is the number?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

I believe your answer is 8.

Three times a number less than twice the number and nine is seventeen can be written as: 3n - 2n + 9 = 17

Solve for n as follows:

3n - 2n = n

n + 9 = 17

17 - 9 = 8

Hope this helps! :)
