Answer:
-24
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum cost for 20 crates would be 68 dollars. You would buy 18 crates using the 3 for 10 dollars ( this would cost 60 dollars), and then 2 crates using the one crate for 4 dollars (this would cost 8 dollars) all together you would have 20 crates, costing you 68 dollars.
In
order to solve for a nth term in an arithmetic sequence, we use the formula
written as:<span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
where an is the nth term, a1 is the first value
in the sequence, n is the term position and d is the common difference.
First, we need to calculate for d from the given
values above.
<span>a3 = 20.5 and a8 = 13
</span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
20.5 = a1 + (3-1)d
</span>an = a1 + (n-1)d
13 = a1 + (8-1)d
<span>
a1 = 23.5
d = -1.5
The 11th term is calculated as follows:
a11 = a1 + (n-1)d
a11= 23.5 + (11-1)(-1.5)
a11 =
8.5</span>

Answer:
- C) (x − 3)2 = 25
- C) Factor out 4 from 4x2 + 40x.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation will "complete the square." That square is 9, so the result on the right is 16+9 = 25. Only selection C matches.
___
2. To complete the square, you want to be able to put the quadratic into the form a(x -h)^2 = -k. For the purpose, it is most convenient to first factor "a" from the given quadratic. Then you can determine "-h" to be half the x-coefficient inside the parentheses.
Here, that looks like ...
4(x² +10x) = 80 . . . . . . . . . . step 1: factor out 4
4(x² +10x +25) = 180 . . . . . add 25 inside parentheses and the same number (4·25) on the right side of the equation
4(x +5)² = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square
