Answer:

3n - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

This phrase includes subtraction (“less than”) and multiplication (“times”). We are multiplying a number (3) by the variable to create the term 3n. Subtraction is not commutative, so order does matter. 17 less than 3n means we have 3n and take 17 away: 3n - 17.

Find a quadratic function that includes the set of values below.

Answer:

  y = -2x^2 +7x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator or spreadsheet can tell you the quadratic regression formula that will fit these points:

  y = -2x^2 +7x +4

__

If you'd like to do this "by hand", you can substitute the given points into the equation y = ax^2 +bx +c to get three linear equations in a, b, c.

  4 = 0 +0 +c

  10 = a(2^2) +b(2) +c

  0 = a(4^2) +b(4) +c

Using the value of c from the first equation, these reduce to ...

  6 = 4a +2b

  -4 = 16a +4b

Dividing the second of these equations by 2, and subtracting the first, we have ...

  (16a +4b)/2 -(4a +2b) = (-4)/2 -(6)

  4a = -8

  a = -2

From the first of the reduced equations, we find ...

  b = (6 -4a)/2 = 3 -2a = 3 -2(-2) = 7

So, a=-2, b=7, c=4, and the equation is ...

  y = -2x^2 +7x +4

The excluded values of a rational expression are 2 and 5. Which of the following could be this expression?
muminat
<span>You have not added the options, therefore, I cannot provide an exact answer. However, I can help you with the concept.

In any fraction, the <u>denominator cannot be equal to zero</u> because this would make the fraction <u>undefined</u>.
<u>Excluded values</u> are the values that would make the denominator equal to zero.

We are given that the excluded values are 2 and 5, this means that the factors of the denominator are (x-2) and (x-5)
This means that the denominator is x</span>²<span> - 7x + 10

Pick the fraction which has this denominator.

Hope this helps :)</span>
