(x + 3)^2 + (x + 4)^2
= x^2 + 6x + 9 + x^2 + 8x + 16
= 2x^2 + 14x + 25
= 2(x^2 + 7x) + 25
= 2[(x + 7/2)^2 - 49/4] + 25
= 2(x + 7/2)^2 - 98/4 + 25
= 2(x + 7/2)^2 + 1/2

Answer: 
Answer:
$102.96
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets take this one part at a time.
the dealership pays 12000 for the car, so they start at -12000 for how much money they have.
The dealership wants to make a 32% profit. This means they want to make back the 12000 plus 32% of that. what is 32% of 12000? just multiply 12000 bty .32 In the end it works out that the price they sell it for is 15840
I do want to mention that there is a chance the 32% might also be accounting the bonus. So in other words the dealership spent 12000 for the car then however much in paying the bonus, and they want to make a 32% profit on both of these combined. I do not think that is what it is asking for, but I wanted to mention it.
Anyway, with a sales price of $15,840 it says the bonus is 6.5% of that. to find that just do the multiplication .065 * 15840 = 1029.60. So this is the bonus normally.
Now the question says the salesperson offers a 10 percent discount. This changes the sales price (by 10%) and the bonus they earn. let's calculate both.
First 10% discount of the sales price is .9*15840 = 14,256
Then 6.5% of that is .065*14256 = 926.64 So this is the new bonus.
The question wants the difference of the two bonuses, and difference is subtraction. so 1029.60 - 926.64 = 102.96 So if the salesperson offers a 10% discount they lose $102.96
Answer:
w = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
w + 4 = (-6)
Subtract 4 from each side
w+4-4 = -6-4
w = -10
<u>Answer:</u>
- 6. 6.75
- 7. 27
- 8. 92/17
- 9. 49
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>- Question 6 -</u>
- 9/16 = x/12
- => 16x = 12 x 9
- => 16x = 108
- => x = 6.75
Hence, <u>the value of x in this proportion is 6.75.</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 7 -</u>
- -3 + x/18 = 12/9
- => -3/18 + x/18 = 4/3
- => x/18 = 4/3 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 8/6 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 9/6
- => x = 9/6 x 18
- => x = 27
Hence, <u>the value of x is 27</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 8 -</u>
17/15 = 10/2x - 2
=> 17(2x - 2) = 150
=> 34x - 34 = 150
=> 34x = 184
=> x = 184/34
=> x = 92/17
Hence, <u>the value of x is 92/17</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 9 -</u>
- x - 16/x + 6 = 3/5
- => 5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6)
- => 5x - 80 = 3x + 18
- => 2x = 98
- => x = 49
Hence, <u>the value of x is 49.</u>
