The answer is (5x - 4y)(2a + b)
10ax + 5bx - 8ay - 4by = 10ax + 5bx - (8ay + 4by) =<span>
= 5x * 2a + 5x * b - (2a * 4y + b * 4y) =
= 5x(2a + b) - 4y(2a + b) =
= (5x - 4y)(2a + b)</span>
Just 7 would be the answer
F(t)=15000(0.85) ^t => <span>f(t) = $15000(0.85) ^t
Substitute 2 1/3 for t in this equation. This is equivalent to 7/3.
</span> f(7/3) = $15000(0.85)^(7/3)
= $10266.02 (answer)
Hi I think this answer would be b. A is backwards. C and d do not make sense
