Answer:

0.85c
one is the cost; the other is the discount

Step-by-step explanation:

a) As a fraction of the original price Louisa will pay ...

0.85c . . . . 85% of the subscription price

b) Louisa's expression (-0.15c) tells the amount of the discount, not the cost of the subscription. If Louisa were to write the cost of the subscription, her expression would be ...

c - 0.15c

c) The expression of (a) is the cost of the subscription; the expression Louisa wrote is the amount of cost reduction due to the discount.

How does drawing a rectangle support the idea of composing a larger unit from smaller units

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

When you think rectangles, you think areas. Small areas aggregate to form bigger ones.

If you drew a rectangle, it's easy to divide it into smaller units by simply taking a line through its midsection from one length to the other and one width to the other. One can either form smaller squares or rectangles from a larger one.

When that is one, you'd have taken the larger area of a rectangle which is simply the product of the value of its length and it's the breadth, and divided it into smaller units.

Cheers!

Write an equation that passes through the points (0,-5) and (8,-5)

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Equation of the line: $y = -5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $(x_0,\, y_0)$ and $(x_1,\, y_1)$ denote the coordinates of these two points, respectively.

Calculate the slope $m$ of this line:

$\displaystyle m = \frac{y_1 - y_0}{x_1 - x_0} = \frac{(-5) - (-5)}{8 - 0} = 0$ .

Notice that the slope is zero because the two points have the same $y$ -coordinates ( $y_0 = y_1 = -5$ ) even though their $x$ -coordinates are distinct ( $x_0 \ne x_1$ .)

Equation for this line in point-slope form:

$y - y_0 = m\, (x - x_0)$ .

$y - (-5) = 0\, (x - 0)$ .

Rewrite and simplify to obtain the equation of this line in slope-intercept form:

$y = -5$ .

The $x$ -term was eliminated because the slope was zero.

Form a polynomial function whose real zeros are in -1, 1, 3 and whose degree is 3

polet [3.4K]

The polynomial function whose real zeros are in -1, 1, 3 and whose degree is 3 is $x^3-3x^2-x+3=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find a polynomial function whose real zeros are in -1, 1, 3 and whose degree is 3.

If -1, 1 and 3 are real zeros, it can be written as:

x= -1, x= 1, and x = 3

or x+1=0, x-1=0 and x-3=0

Finding polynomial by multiply these factors:

$(x+1)(x-1)(x-3)=0\\(x+1)(x(x-3)-1(x-3))=0\\(x+1)(x^2-3x-x+3)=0\\(x+1)(x^2-4x+3)=0\\x(x^2-4x+3)+1(x^2-4x+3)=0\\x^3-4x^2+3x+x^2-4x+3=0\\Combining\,\,like\,\,terms:\\x^3-4x^2+x^2+3x-4x+3=0\\x^3-3x^2-x+3=0$

So, The polynomial function whose real zeros are in -1, 1, 3 and whose degree is 3 is $x^3-3x^2-x+3=0$
