Answer:
4a + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x² + 2
f(a) = a² + 2
f(a+2) = (a+2)² + 2
f(a+2) − f(a) = (a+2)² + 2 − (a² + 2)
f(a+2) − f(a) = a² + 4a + 4 + 2 − a² − 2
f(a+2) − f(a) = 4a + 4
Because they do not have like bases.
Answer:Michael spent 53 1/4 hours
training.
Step-by-step explanation:
Over the course of four weeks Mia spent 35 1 2 hours training for a race. This can be written in decimal point as 35.5 hours.
Michael spent 1 1 2 times that amount training for the same race. Converting 1 1 2 to decimal, it becomes 1.5 hours.
This means that the number of hours that Michael spent training will be 35.5 × 1.5 = 53.25 hour.
Converting 53.25 hours to mixed fraction, it becomes
53 1/4 hours
