Answer:

-4x² + 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x(x+7-1(3x+1)) = 2x(x+7-3x-1)

= 2x² + 14x - 6x² - 2x

= -4x² + 12x

What is the solution to y = x + 2 and y = 3x – 2 and how do you know? PLEASE HELPPPPP! THANK U!

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

(2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system:

y=x+2

y=3x-2.

This is already setup for substitution.

I'm going to replace my first y with what the second y equals.

That is, I'm going to write 3x-2=x+2.

Time to solve the following for x:

3x-2=x+2

Subtract x on both sides:

2x-2= 2

Add 2 on both sides:

2x. = 4

Divide both sides by 2:

x. = 2

Now that we know x=2 and we have an equation that relates x to y: either y=x+2 or y=3x-2, doesn't matter which we use, we can find y.

So we y=x+2 with x=2 which means y=2+2=4.

So the solution, the intersection, is (2,4).

The scatter plot shows the number of flowers that have bloomed in the garden during the month of March:

Elodia [21]

Answer:

A: A coefficient of 0.98 shows a strong positive correlation with the data.

B: A graph comparing the number of seeds planted to the number of flowers in a garden.

Explanation:

A: Because, a correlation coefficient of 1 means there is a direct positive correlation correlation anyting over 0.5 shows a strong posotive correlation.

B: Any relationship where the first value directly causes the second is a causual relationship.

A new car sells for $27,500. The value of the car decreases by 14% annually. You want to sell the car when it's worth about $400

NemiM [27]

Answer: 13 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price decreases by 14% anually

To find the decimal form, you have 14%/100% = 0.14

So, the year zero, the price is $27,500

After one year, the price is:

P = $27,500 - 0.14*$27500 = $27,500*(0.86)

After the second year, the price is:

P = $27,500*(0.86)^2

and so on, so we want to find x such that:

P = $27,500*(0.86)^x = $4000

0.86^x = $4000/$27,500

Now, using the natural logaritm rule:

a^x = b

x = ln(a)/ln(b)

x = ln($4000/$27,500)/ln(0.86) = 12.8

We can round it up to 13, so after 13 years the price of the car is about $4000

You have a wire that is 20 cm long. You wish to cut it into two pieces. One piece will be bent into the shape of a square. The o

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Therefore the circumference of the circle is $=\frac{20\pi}{4+\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the square be s

and the radius of the circle be r

The perimeter of the square is = 4s

The circumference of the circle is =2πr

Given that the length of the wire is 20 cm.

According to the problem,

4s + 2πr =20

⇒2s+πr =10

$\Rightarrow s=\frac{10-\pi r}{2}$

The area of the circle is = πr²

The area of the square is = s²

A represent the total area of the square and circle.

A=πr²+s²

Putting the value of s

$A=\pi r^2+ (\frac{10-\pi r}{2})^2$

$\Rightarrow A= \pi r^2+(\frac{10}{2})^2-2.\frac{10}{2}.\frac{\pi r}{2}+ (\frac{\pi r}{2})^2$

$\Rightarrow A=\pi r^2 +25-5 \pi r +\frac{\pi^2r^2}{4}$

$\Rightarrow A=\pi r^2\frac{4+\pi}{4} -5\pi r +25$

For maximum or minimum $\frac{dA}{dr}=0$

Differentiating with respect to r

$\frac{dA}{dr}= \frac{2\pi r(4+\pi)}{4} -5\pi$

Again differentiating with respect to r

$\frac{d^2A}{dr^2}=\frac{2\pi (4+\pi)}{4}$ > 0

For maximum or minimum

$\frac{dA}{dr}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2\pi r(4+\pi)}{4} -5\pi=0$

$\Rightarrow r = \frac{10\pi }{\pi(4+\pi)}$

$\Rightarrow r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}$

$\frac{d^2A}{dr^2}|_{ r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}}=\frac{2\pi (4+\pi)}{4}>0$

Therefore at $r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}$ , A is minimum.

Therefore the circumference of the circle is

$=2 \pi \frac{10}{4+\pi}$

$=\frac{20\pi}{4+\pi}$
