Ok, first you have to just completely ignore the circles, they arent important.
Secondly, The ratio is, 5 stars to every 11 squares
Answer:
f(x)=19x - 7x
Step-by-step explanation:
I am a high schooler as well and was working on this problem as well. I can't say I'm right or wrong because I didn't have a grade on it yet. I believe the answer is f(x)=19x - 7x. The Lines don't have a given value, so I chose the values 12 for Line A and 7 for Line B. I believe the answer is this because Line A would produce 12 bags each day and 3 of them would not be useable, leaving you with 9. Line B would produce 7 and 4 of them would be unusable, leaving you with 3. Line A produces 9 per day while Line B produces 3, and that would check off the part that says, "Line A produces 3 times as many bags as Line B each day." Throughout the problem, it talks about how many bags can each line produces each day, and the sentence talks about that specifically as well. So, the function must be about the amount of bags produced per day. x would represent the number of days that the Lines have been working. 19 is the total amount of bags that was produced in a day. 7 represents the total amount of bags that are unusable. Though I may be wrong, I hope this might help you come to a conculsion of your own.
Answer:
18x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= 3x + 10x
g(x)=5x - 3
f(x)+g(x) = 3x + 10x + 5x - 3
Combine like terms
= 18x -3
So (positive integer)-x-y can be negative
so to get a negative number as your result/answer, x+y must be greater than (positve integer) so for example
lets say (positive integer)=8
x+y must be greater than 8 to make the equation negative so
example
x=5
y=4
x+y=9
8-9=-1
G(x)=x^2-10x+16
g(x)=x^2-10x+25-25+16
g(x)= (x-5)^2-9
minimum value is -9
