17) replace the given number for "x" and evaluate
a) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = 3
3² + 2(3) + 1
= 9 + 6 + 1
= 16
b) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = -4
(-4)² + 2(-4) + 1
= 16 - 8 + 1
= 9
c) x² + 2x + 1 ; when x = 3
(-22.872)² + 2(-22.872) + 1
= 523.128384 - 45.744 + 1
= 478.384384
18) The dependent variable is affected by the other variable and is the "output" The independent variable is the input.
a) y = 3x - 5; "x" is the independent variable
b) the time of day is the independent variable (you would input the time of day to calculate the temperature).
19) Let the x-axis represent the length of the lumber cut off and the y-axis represent the length of the lumber remaining.
Answer:
10,93,500.
Step-by-step explanation:
On first February total number of rabbits were 500.
Now it is given that after each month rabbit population will become triple of initial.
So, after one month rabbits will become 3×500.
After two months they will become
×500.
Thus , after m months total number of rabbits will become
×500.
Now,
On August 1 , 7 months will get passed from February 1 so putting m = 7 in the equation we get ,
Total number of rabbits =
×500 = 10,93,500.

Answer:
(-1/4, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the given information into the equation and solve for y.
3y +4(-1/4) = 5
3y -1 = 5 . . . . . . simplify
3y = 6 . . . . . . . . add 1
y = 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
The point is (-1/4, 2).
