Answer:

2x-3y

Step-by-step explanation:

To expand this expression, use the distributive property.

-\frac{1}{4}(-8x+12y)

To distribute, multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses.

(-\frac{1}{4}*-8x)+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

Multiply -1/4 and -8x first.

((-\frac{1}{4}*-8)x)+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

2x+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

Next, multiply -1/4 and 12y.

2x+ ((-\frac{1}{4} *12)y)

2x+ -3y

A +- becomes a -

2x-3y

Answer:

 

8x -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property. 16 outside wishes to go inside and multiply each term; you get 16x/2 which is 8x minus ¾ of 16 which is 12.

The price of an item has been reduced by 85% . The original price was $45. What is the price of the item now.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:the price for the item now it's 6.75


Step-by-step explanation:

Origin price is 45=100% after reduction comes to 85% =x

X stands for the unknown value of the reduction therefore

45=100%

X=85%

45*.85=100x


After calculation you realised the value of x reduction value it's 38.25


Hence, original price is 45 your less from the value reduced 38.25 therefore the value of the item is 6.75

Find the absolute minimum and absolute maximum values of f on the given interval. f(x) = x − ln 8x, [1/2, 2]
insens350 [35]
The given function is 
f(x) =  x - ln(8x), on the interval [1/2, 2].

The derivative of f is
f'(x) = 1 - 1/x
The second derivative is 
f''(x) = 1/x²

A local maximum or minimum occurs when f'(x) = 0.
That is,
1 - 1/x = 0  => 1/x = 1  => x =1.
When x = 1, f'' = 1 (positive).
Therefore f(x) is minimum when x=1.
The minimum value is
f(1) = 1 - ln(8) = -1.079

The maximum value of f occurs either at x = 1/2 or at x = 2.
f(1/2) = 1/2 - ln(4) = -0.886
f(2)  = 2 - ln(16) = -0.773
The maximum value of f is
f(2) = 2 - ln(16) = -0.773
A graph of f(x) confirms the results.

Answer: 
Minimum value  = 1 - ln(8)
Maximum value = 2 - ln(16)
