A. Translate each of the following into algebraic expressions: (1 point each)
1.x plus y squared ---> x + y^2
2.8 times a number, x, decreased by y ---> 8x - y
3.the sum of x and y, squared ---> (x + y)^2
4.3 times the difference of x and y ---> 3( x - y)
5.6 less than x cubed --- > x^3 - 6
B. Translate the following phrases into algebraic expressions. Explain,
in complete sentences, the difference between the two. (3 points)
´twice the sum of x and y ---> 2(x + y)
´the sum of twice x and y ---> 2x + y
The first one adds first x and y, and then doubles the result, while the second one first doubles de value of x and the adds y.
C. Create your own example of a mathematical phrase you might hear in
the real world and provide the translation for it. Be sure to identify
what part of the phrase i
The sales of this year exceeded the sales of last year in tweny millions.
y = x + 20,000,000, where x represents the sales of last year and y represents the sales of this year,
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
4+3a=16
-4. -4
3a=12
/3. /3
a=4
X-ounces of an oil blend,
y - ounces of glycerin
x + y = 4 ⇒ y = 4 - x
1.5 x + y = 5.50
1.5 x + 4 - x = 5.50
0.5 x = 5.50 - 4
0.5 x = 1.50
x = 3
y = 4 - 3 = 1
There are 3 ounces of an oil blend and 1 ounce of glycerin.
