Yes, your work is correct.
The diagram does illustrate x²+6x+9=72. This is also represented by
(x+3)² = 72
We can take the square root of both sides:

When we evaluate this, the answers are x = -11.5 or x = 5.5.
Answer:
+3
Step-by-step explanation:
(-m)^(-3) = -m^3, since (-1)^-3 = 1 / (-1).
If m = 2 then we have -2^(-3), or -1 / [2^3]), or -1/8.
Finally, if n = -24, the original expression becomes
(-1/8)(-24) = +3
Second problem: Only the first expression simplifies to a negative result.

$291.50
Step-by-step explanation:
For 22 hours, he earns 22 times his hourly pay.
22×$13.25 = $291.50
Answer:
Reflection across y axis
Translate up by 3 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Required
Describe the transformation from f(x) to g(x)
First, take a reflection of f(x) across the y axis.
So f(x) becomes f(-x)
when reflected

Next, translate f(-x) up by 3 units to give g(x)

Where




Hence, the transformation from f(x) to g(x) includes:
Reflection across y axis
Translate up by 3 units
Answer: a) P = 0.5, b) P = 0.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Lets call X₁ the time at which you arrive, and X₂ the time at which Bob arrives. Both are random variables with uniform density in the interval [0, 60] (in minutes). Their joint distribuition is uniform over the square in the image, with value P = 1/(60*60) = 1/3600.
a) For you to get more cake than Bob, you should arrive earlier. This event is A = { X₁ < X₂ }, the shaded triangle in the figure.The area of this event (set) is half the total area of the square, so P(A) = 0.5.
It makes sense, beacuse its equally probable for you or Bob to arrive earlier, as both have uniform density over the time interval.
b) In this case you arrive later than Bob, but less than 5 minutes later. So the event is B = { X₂ < X₁ < (X₂ + 5) } . This is the gray shaded area in b) part of the image. Its area is the difference two triangles (half square - blue triangle), then the probability is:
