Answer: 25
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
7(x - y) - 3(2 + 2x)
= 7x - 7y - 6 - 6x
= x - 7y - 6
for x = 3, y = -4
3 - 7(-4) - 6
= 3 + 28 - 6
= 31 - 6
= 25
Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
Answer:
- leading coefficient: 2
- degree: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plugging in all the values into the equation, only A holds a true statement.
First we will subtract $2 from $3.2 since that is late fee to get $1.2.
Now we divide $1.2 by $0.15 to get number of cents hence 8 days.
The answer is Maria is 8 days too late to hand over the book.
Hope this helps.
