Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
f(x) = 1 - x²
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em> [Function f(x)]: f(2x + 4) = 1 - (2x + 4)²
- Expand [FOIL]: f(2x + 4) = 1 - (4x² + 16x + 16)
- (Parenthesis) Distribute negative: f(2x + 4) = 1 - 4x² - 16x - 16
- Combine like terms: f(2x + 4) = -4x² -16x - 15
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-2) = 2(2x+6)
4x-8 = 4x+12 <-- Your answer
-8 = 12
No solution
28+72 put into distributive property is 4(7+18)
Since the operation between the two sets of parentheses is addition, we don't have to do anything with it, and can remove the parentheses.
Our new expression is: 2y^2+9y+4-3y^2-3y-9
Now, we just add like terms together to solve for the simplest form of the expression.
2y^2+9y+4-3y^2-3y-9
(2-3)y^2+(9-3)y+(4-9)
-y^2+6y-5
Our final answer is -y^2+6y-5.
Answer:
28 years
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of years that the investment will reach $3500, we can use the formula of compound interest:
P = Po * (1+r)^t
where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the annual interest and t is the time in years.
In this question, P = 3500, Po = 1800 and r = 2.46% = 0.0246, so:
3500 = 1800 * (1+0.0246)^t
1.0246^t = 3500/1800
1.0246^t = 1.9444
Using logarithm in both sides:
log(1.0246^t) = log(1.9444)
t*log(1.0246) = 0.2888
t * 0.0106 = 0.2888
t = 0.2888 / 0.0106 = 27.2453 years
So the investment will reach $3500 after 28 years (rounding the result up, because after 27 years the investment will not reach $3500)
