Classify each polynomial by its degree and number of terms.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

20x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the distributive property, where we essentially take the sum of the product of the outside number with each of the inside terms.

In 7(4x - 2), 7 is the outside number and 4x and -2 are the inside numbers, so:

7(4x - 2) = 7 * 4x + 7 * (-2) = 28x - 14

In 4(2x - 8), 4 is the outside number and 2x and -8 are the inside numbers, so:

4(2x - 8) = 4 * 2x + 4 * (-8) = 8x - 32

Now, we have:

28x - 14 - (8x - 32) = 28x - 14 - 8x + 32 = 20x + 18

The answer is 20x + 18.

The Fall Festival charges $0.75 per ticket for the rides. Kendall bought 18 tickets for rides and spent a total of $33.50 at the

PIT_PIT [208]

Part (a)

The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.

Part (b)

The cost of one ticket is $0.75. Therefore, the cost of 18 tickets will be:

$0.75\times 18=13.5$ dollars

Now, we know that Kendall spent her money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that she spent a total of $33.50.

Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $33.50-$13.50=$20

If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be written as:

$y=0.75x+20$ ......Equation 1

Part (c)

The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 0.75x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$20.

Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.

Victoria has $200 of her birthday gift money saved at home, and the amount is modeled by the function h(x) = 200. She reads abou

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

h(x) * s(x) = 200(1.05)^(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our interest equation is s(x) = (1.05)^(x - 1). This is actually a part of a bigger formula for calculating the amount of money accumulated including interest:

A = P(1 + r)^n, where A is the total, P is the principal amount (initial amount), r is the interest rate, and n is the time

Here, we technically already have the (1 + r)^n part; it's just (1.05)^(x - 1). The principle, though, will actually be the 200 because she starts out at $200.

Thus, to combine these, we simply multiply them together to get:

h(x) * s(x) = 200(1.05)^(x - 1)
