"3 less than twice 'x' " . . . . that's (2x - 3)
" 2 more than the quantity (3 x) " . . . . . that's (3x + 2)
Their product is
(2x - 3) (3x + 2) .
If you want to expand it to a single expression, perform the multiplication,
and you have
6x² - 5x - 6 .

<u>Plotting </u>
<u />
Step 1: determine the y-intercept
- plot the point as the first point on the graph
Step 2: Move 2 units up, and 1 unit left (keep repeating this process until you have reached the limit of the graph)
Step 3: Go to the other side of the graph of the first point (y-intercept)
- move 2 units down, and 1 unit right keep repeating this process until you have reached the limit of the graph)
<em>When you've completed this process, it should look like this:</em>
Answer:
Cost function = 40a + 500
Cost of 90 articles = $4,100
Step-by-step explanation:
The fixed cost is $500 and it will.not change regardless of production level.
The Variable cost is $40 and increases by every additional unit produced.
Assume the number of articles produced is a.
Cost function would be:
Total cost = Variable cost * Number of articles + Fixed cost
TC = 40a + 500
Using this, the cost of 90 articles is:
= 40 * 90 + 500
= $4,100
This is an exponential equation. We will solve in the following way. I do not have special symbols, functions and factors, so I work in this way
2 on (2x) - 5 2 on x + 4=0 =>. (2 on x)2 - 5 2 on x + 4=0 We will replace expression ( 2 on x) with variable t => 2 on x=t =. t2-5t+4=0 => This is quadratic equation and I solve this in the folowing way => t2-4t-t+4=0 => t(t-4) - (t-4)=0 => (t-4) (t-1)=0 => we conclude t-4=0 or t-1=0 => t'=4 and t"=1 now we will return t' => 2 on x' = 4 => 2 on x' = 2 on 2 => x'=2 we do the same with t" => 2 on x" = 1 => 2 on x' = 2 on 0 => x" = 0 ( we know that every number on 0 gives 1). Check 1: 2 on (2*2)-5*2 on 2 +4=0 => 2 on 4 - 5 * 4+4=0 => 16-20+4=0 =. 0=0 Identity proving solution.
Check 2: 2 on (2*0) - 5* 2 on 0 + 4=0 => 2 on 0 - 5 * 1 + 4=0 =>
1-5+4=0 => 0=0 Identity provin solution.
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation
Based on the question, we can determine that 4x = 22 + 2x where x in is the number
"Four times a number" -> <u>4x</u>
"was" -> <u>=</u>
"22 greater than" -> <u>22 +</u>
"twice the same number" -> <u>2x</u>
Put the underlined parts together to get <u>4x = 22 + 2x</u>
Solve equation
Rearrange/collect like terms to solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides
4x = 22 + 2x
2x = 22
Solve for x by dividing each side by 2
2x = 22
x = 11
Final Answer
x = 11
