(sorry if it's too late and you've already figured it out, but here you go anyway)
The easiest way to do this is to start by FOILing then add.
So just start with (x-1)(x-1)
(x-1)(x-1)
Front: (x*x) = x^2
Outer: (x*-1) = -x
inner: (-1*x) = -x
Last: (-1*-1) = 1
Added: x^2 -2x +1
Now take that answer and do the same thing with (x-1). It's basically the same thing, just with an added thing you need to multiply.
(x-1)(x^2-2x+1)
(x*x^2) = x^3
(x*2x) = 2x^2
(x*1) = x
(-1*x^2) = -x^2
(-1*-2x) = 2x
(-1*1) = -1
Now add everything together:
x^3+2x^2+x-x^2+2x-1
The answer is:
x^3+x^2+3x-1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your exponential formula is in the form y = ab^x. In this form, the coefficient 'a' is the initial value, the y-intercept, the value when x=0. The value 'b' is the growth factor, which is 1 more than the growth rate per increment of x. This problem is asking for the growth rate to be expressed as a percentage.
__
Given p(x) = 78500(1.02^x), we can compare to the exponential function form to see that ...
- a = 78,500
- b = 1.02 = 1 +0.02 = 1 +2%
The value of x is zero in the year 2000, so the population that year is ...
p(0) = a = 78,500
The increase per year is the value of 'b' with 1 subtracted:
growth rate = 2% per year
Find the area of the room by multiplying the length by the width:
Area of room = 20 x 12 = 240 square feet.
Find the area of the tile: 2x 2 = 4 square feet.
To find the number of tiles divide the area of the room by the area of a tile:
240/4 = 60
They will need 60 tiles.
The ball will hit the ground when h(t)=0 so:
16t^2-96t=0
16t(t-6)=0, since t>0
t=6
So the ball with hit the ground after 6 seconds.
