Answer: 43

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concept:</u>

Here, we need to understand the idea of evaluation.

When encountering questions that gave you an expression with variables, then stated: "If x = a, y = b, z = c" (a, b, c are all constants), this means you should substitute the value given for each variable back to the expression.

<u>Solve:</u>

**Disclaimer** I assume that the expression is [4x² + 5x - 8]. If it was, then you may refer to my answer. If it was not, then you may point it out and I will redo it.

Given

4x² + 5x - 8

x = 3

Substitute the value of x

4(3)² + 5(3) - 8

Simplify exponents

4(9) + 5(3) - 8

Simplify multiplication

36 + 15 - 8

Final subtraction and addition

Hope this helps!! :)

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same rate, how many gallon

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.

Let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour= 60 minutes.

1/2 hour= 30 minutes.

So 2 hours= 120 minutes.

Let us find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes by dividing 3/4 by 30.

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{3}{4*30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{1}{40}$

Now let us multiply 1/40 by 120 to find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 120 minutes(2 hours).

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=120*\frac{1}{40}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=3$

Therefore, Jen picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.

I am lost on what to do

Neko [114]

$\bf sin({{ \alpha}})sin({{ \beta}})=\cfrac{1}{2}[cos({{ \alpha}}-{{ \beta}})\quad -\quad cos({{ \alpha}}+{{ \beta}})]
\\\\\\
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\lim\limits_{x\to 0}\ \cfrac{sin(11x)}{cot(5x)}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{sin(11x)}{\frac{cos(5x)}{sin(5x)}}\implies \cfrac{sin(11x)}{1}\cdot \cfrac{sin(5x)}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(11x)sin(5x)}{cos(5x)}$

$\bf \cfrac{\frac{cos(11x-5x)-cos(11x+5x)}{2}}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2}}{cos(5x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2cos(5x)}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{x\to 0}\ \cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{1-1}{2\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{0}{2}\implies 0$
