Answer:
It is not valid since there is more than one variable being changed at one.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jackson changed the brand of soil, but he also changes the amount of water, and the amount of sunlight the plants are receiving, so his conclusion that the soil was more effective is not valid.
Option a:
is the equivalent expression.
Explanation:
The expression is
where 
Let us simplify the expression, to determine which expression is equivalent from the four options.
Multiplying the powers, we get,

Cancelling the like terms, we have,

This equation can also be written as,

Multiplying the terms in denominator, we have,

Thus, the expression which is equivalent to
is 
Hence, Option a is the correct answer.
Answer:
[(a)^2-(4^2)](a+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A =
r²
so we do
5² = 25 * 
25 * 
= 78.5 square units
Answer:
a) $50,880
b) $48
c) 1060
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
-320x^2 + 1920x + 48000 = 0
This is a parabola that opens downward. It has a maximum value. The maximum value occurs at x = -b/(2a)
x = -b/(2a) = (-1920)/(2(-320)) = 1920/640 = 3
The maximum revenue, y, is the value of the function evaluated at x = 3.
f(x) = -320x^2 + 1920x + 48000
f(-3) = -320(3)^2 + 1920(3) + 48000
f(-3) = 50,880
The maximum revenue is $50,880
b)
Since maximum revenue occurs at x = 3, and since x represents the number of $4 discounts, the discount is 3 * $4 = $12. The price is $60 - $12 = $48
c)
$50,880/$48 = 1060
