Answer:
5.2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the height of the plant after 7 weeks, we need to find out the equation of the line of best fit and plug in 7 for x. We already have our y - intercept, which is 1, and we have a point on the x axis for which the y coordinate is an integer, (5, 4). Since we already have the y - intercept of +1 we have y = mx + 1. Since this applies to (5,4) we can plug this in to our equation. This is then 4 = 5m + 1. Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get 3 = 5m. Dividing by 5, we receive m = 3/5. Since now we have our slope, we can plug in 7 and find out our answer. Plugging in 7 we receive, y = 3/5 * 7 + 1, which is equal to y = 4.2 + 1. This means that y = 5.2, so 5.2 is our answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
is essentially 
(you are squaring 
, so multiplying it by itself), so to simplify, you would need to distribute.
A good way to go about this is using the F.O.I.L. method, multiplying the First numbers in the parentheses, then the Outers, then Inners, and finally, Lasts.

After doing so, you would end up with 
, and after combining like terms, 
.
To write the expression in standard form, though, just order the terms from highest to lowest power!
Answer:
178 ERASERS
Step-by-step explanation:
YOU NEED TO START BACKWARDS. HE BOUGHT 76 ERASERS AND HE HAS 193, SO WHATEVER HE HAD AT THE END OF TUESDAY+76 IS HOW MUCH HE HAS ON WEDNESDAY. 193-76=117. ON TUESDAY, HE STARTED WITH ERASERS AT END OF TUESDAY+39 ERASERS. 117+39=156. ON MONDAY, HE STARTED WITH END OF MONDAY+22 ERASERS. 156+22=178
You might be thinking of "distribution" or "distributive property"
Example:
2(3x+5) = 2*3x+2*5 = 6x+10
I multiplied the outer 2 by each term inside (3x and 5)
