What is an expression for the area of the shaded region? Simplify your answer.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

if it is put into a equation this would be it

2(x^2+6x+9) - (1.57)(x^2+6x+9)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3)(2x+6) - 1/2(3.14)(x+3)(x+3)

(2x^2+6x+6x+18) - 1/2(3.14)(x^2+3x+3x+9)

(2x^2+12x+18) - 1/2(3.14)(x^2+6x+9)

2(x^2+6x+9) - (1.57)(x^2+6x+9)

2(x^2+6x+9) is the rectangle at the bottom

(1.57)(x^2+6x+9) is the semicircle that is taking out of the shaded area

Suppose that the functions p and q are defined as follows.p(x) = -2x + 1q(x)=-x?Find the following.
MariettaO [177]

First let us find

(q\mathrm{}p)(x)\begin{gathered} q(p(x))=q(-2x+1) \\ =-(-2x+1)^2 \\ So\text{ } \\ (q\mathrm{}p)(5)=-(-2\times5+1)^2 \\ =-(9)^2 \\ =-81 \end{gathered}

Now let;s solve the second part

\begin{gathered} (p\mathrm{}q)(x)=p(q(x)) \\ =p(-x^2) \\ =-2(-x^2)+1 \\ =2x^2+1 \\ So\text{ (p.q)(5) will be } \\ (p\mathrm{}q)(5)=2(5)^2+1 \\ =51 \end{gathered}

A company makes video games. The price of a video game is modeled by the function p(x) = 30x + 2, where x is the number of years
atroni [7]

The answer is option C "multiplication." You have the function p(x) = 30x + 2 and x equals the number of years since the company started producing games which has this equation also s(x) = 500x + 250 in order to find the revenue from their video games the company should use the multiplication on the polynomials.

Hope this helps!
