Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a - b)(a + b) =a² - b²

(3x + 5)(3x -5) =(3x)² - 5² = 9x² - 25

(x +2)(x+2) = (x+ 2)² = x²+ 2*2*x+2² = x² + 4x + 4

(x+2)(3x -5 ) = x*3x - 5*x +2*3x +2*(-5)

                    = 3x² -5x +6x -10

                    = 3x² + x - 10

\frac{2*(3x+5)}{x+2}-\frac{5(x+2)}{3x-5}=3\\\\\frac{2*(3x+5)*(3x-5)}{(x+2)(3x-5)}-\frac{5*(x+2)(x+2)}{(3x-5)(x+2)}=3\\\\\frac{2*(9x^{2}-25)-5(x^{2}+4x+4)}{(3x-5)(x+2)}=3

\frac{18x^{2}-25-5x^{2}-20x-20}{3x^{2}+x-10}=3\\\\\frac{18x^{2}-5x^{2}-20x - 25-20}{3x^{2}+x-10}=3\\\\

13x² - 20x - 45 = 3*(3x² + x - 10)

13x² - 20x - 45 =9x² + 3x - 30

13x² - 9x² -20x - 3x - 45 + 30 = 0

4x² - 23x - 15 = 0

What is the standard form of this function?<br> F(x) = -(x-4)^2 + 2
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

f (x) = -2 (x + 6)^2 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f (x) = -2x^2 - 24x - 70 <--- divide out -2 out of the first two terms...

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x) - 70 <-- divide the x coefficient by 2 and then square it, then add AND subtract it)  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + (12/2)^2 - (12/2)^2) - 70  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + 36 - 36) - 70 <--- distribute the -2 onto -36 to get it out of the brackets..  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + 36) + 72 - 70 <-- combine constants and factor perfect square trinomial...  

f (x) = -2 (x + 6)^2 + 2 <-- standard form...

In 2008, the price of gasoline was $2.79 per gallon. In 2009, the price of gasoline was
ikadub [295]

Answer:

36%

Step-by-step explanation:

line up $ and % data like this:

$2.79 represents 100%

$3.79 represents  X%

cross multiply

X*2.79 = 3.79*100

divide both sides by 2.79

X= 3.79*100 / 2.79 ≈ 136%

so it increased 36%
