Your ancer is going to be around 3
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
let s be the snowman, g be the girl, and t be the christmas tree
2s+g=24
2t+2ts=132
3t+2g=26
subtract 2 times the first equation from the third one to get
3t-4s=-22
from the second equation we can deduce
2t(1+s)=132
t(1+s)=66
t=66/(1+s)
Substitute:
3(66)/(1+s)-4s=-22
3(66)/(1+s)=4s-22
3(66)=(4s-22)(1+s)
3(66)=-18s+4s^2-22
4s^2-18s-220=0
using the quadratic formula, we get s = 10, s = -5.5.
2(10)+g=24
g=4
2t(1+10)=132
2t=12
t=6
So 2s+t*g= 20+6*4=48
you would get a different solution for the negative s, but since snowmen cannot be negative, 48 is the answe.r

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
x + (3x - 4) = 5 - (-7 - 3x)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Distributive Property] Distribute negative: x + 3x - 4 = 5 + 7 + 3x
- [Addition] Combine like terms: 4x - 4 = 12 + 3x
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3x on both sides: x - 4 = 12
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 4 on both sides: x = 16
Answer: Quadratic; 6x^2, x, -12
Detailed Explanation:
The highest power of the function (degree) is 2. Therefore it is a quadratic function. The quadratic term is 6x^2 since its power is 2, the linear term is x since its power is 1 and the constant term is -12.
